The Minnesota Timberwolves weren't content running back with their same core in 2026-27.
After another playoff run that ended sooner than they had hoped, the team made some bold moves in a bid to get over the hump. Of course, as we now know, the biggest move the team was made was trading for star guard LaMelo Ball from the Charlotte Hornets.
To do so, the Wolves had to ship out Julius Randle, Naz Reid, and several other **** ets. The team felt like the current core had peaked, though, and big changes seemed necessary. On Tuesday, the team formally introduced Ball, as well as Josh Green, who should also play a nice role for the team this season.
Immediately after the news of the trade, people were excited imagining a backcourt featuring Ball and Anthony Edwards. Edwards has cemented himself as one of the best players in the league, so having a competent backcourt mate could help him reach a new level.
