You’ve read the rumors, the Minnesota Timberwolves will be trading All-Star wing Jimmy Butler at some point over the next several days, and while we don’t know where and when that Butler trade is going to happen just yet, we do know the Kings want in, according to a new report from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Zach Lowe.
Wojnarowski and Lowe dropped a detailed report on all-things Jimmy Butler trade rumors late last night, and it’s worth reading in its entirety to get the full picture, but as it pertains to the Kings, it looks like they are trying to use their $11 million in cap space + expiring contracts to take on a bad contract and acquire some kind of draft assets in the process.
