Randle traded to Brooklyn in 3 team deal

[60WinTim]

Ok so now the Wolves can absorb salary from Milwaukee without burdening them with Julius. Bring on Giannis!

Ha! I hadn't thought of that one! Hmmm....


Also, the Randle's must be loving the trade, heading back to New York. Kendra Randle's tweet:

All this cap space we could theoretically take on a teams bad contract for a draft asset to gain more ammo for a bigger move. Or just a way to draft a guy we want further up in the draft.

it's not cap space. We're still well over the cap. We're just miles away from apron hell even if we brought Ayo back at $20 mil a year.

I don’t think Ayo is worth 20. Did he really show that? Maybe he did, but I think he’s more a 12-14 guy. Idk

Guess they didn't like the suburban life here after all. Lol

I think he might end up being worth 20 but I'd be much happier with a deal starting at like 17. I think he showed he was worth what NAW got last off-season.

Wolves are getting trashed on social media. Does no one have an imagination? The Wolves should be able to do much better with a TPE vs Randle the player.

Agreed! It’s a good move to get off of a player we had to send out. Sometimes casual fans just hear a big name and assume it should bring something more, but this is a good move for sure.

Let's say the Wolves trade Gobert and they need a solid center to help them till Breringer is ready. They could do a deal taking on Isaiah Stewart for nothing. He is over 5 million cheaper than Claxton and has a team option for the final year of his deal. Just an example of what the Wolves can do now.

I'm still hoping he signs the extension BEFORE July 1st. The max for that contract is something like 3 years at 54 mil, which would start at about 16.3 mil. I would be happy with that, even if it had a player option on the 3rd year.

A player option after year 2 might make him more money than if he signs for a little more for 4 years with a player option on the 4th year. I don't know if there are gonna be teams that can offer him more that that extension.

Also, Mo Gueye is coming from Chicago to Minnesota in this trade to make it official.

He has a nonguaranteed salary, so his status and Julian Phillips' statuses are up in the air.

EDIT: just got waived lol

This is where we need Lip and Monster to tie that 15th man role together for us.
