The Timberwolves are sending Malik Beasley, Patrick Beverley, Walker Kessler, Jarred Vanderbilt and multiple first-round picks for Gobert, sources tell ESPN.

Leandro Bolmaro is also in the deal to the Jazz, source said.


Holy shit. That's a blockbuster deal. There's a lot to analyze here. Let's take a second to process everything.

I'm legit disgusted right now. I don't need to process it. Beasley, Bev, V8 AND at least 3 first round picks when you include Kessler... GROSS

Hopefully he doesn't give covid to the team next season. And word on the "multiple first-rounders"?

The Jazz are landing four Minnesota first-round picks and 2022 first-round pick Walker Kessler in the deal for Rudy Gobert, source tells ESPN.


Oof. Yeah, these details are difficult to swallow. My gut feeling is that it's way too much, AND we get to deal with Rudy Gobert's contract in the future. I think there was a better route to take, but I sure hope it works out.

Oof that is a ton of pick equity. I guarantee with that equity the Wolves gave they would have had the option to swap out Russell for Conley and they did not. This makes me think they have a plan to keep him.

Yeah. Wow! I am not sure how to fell, either.

Connelly and Lore went BIG. There will be a lot to be excited about once it all shakes out. But WOW!
