What if the Wolves can swap 1 for 3 plus Miles Bridges and #32 and still draft James Wiseman. Cam would end up levitating far above Target Center.


I really doubt the Wolves will draft 4 players, so not sure 32 moves the needle. I'm kind of meh on Bridges. I'd rather get a protected first back in 21.

Jeebus. The thing is, it seems like the players they have acquired along the way allow them to still be pretty competitive too, no? Solid vet team + bundles and bundles of picks. Not sure Presti will EVER have as good of a draft run as he had with Durant/Westbrook/Ibaka/Harden. What a ridiculous hot streak.

Right now I am predicting absolutely nothing. I have no clue what the Wolves will do. Along for the ride boys! Gulp.

Only once in my life have the Wolves drafted my top available option with their pick. That was 2015 when they took Karl-Anthony Towns first overall. I don't expect to get what I want in the draft ever again.

Looks like Wolves might be trading 17 for Oubre.

The Wolves took my pick four times: KG, Brandon Roy, Ricky Rubio and KAT. I was also ok with the DWill pick at the time (but didn't think there was any clear cut obvious 2nd best pick after Kyrie).

Not sure I like #17 for Oubre now that I reflect on it a bit. Oubre has only one year left on his $14 million contract. I don't like giving up a valuable first round pick for no more than a one-year rental. And we'd also have to give up James Johnson to match salaries.
