Quite possible. The Conley trade getting us under the First Apron gives the Wolves a lot more flexibility to make other moves in the offseason if this all proves to be fruitless. It also saved Wolves ownership close to $20M in luxury taxes this season.

They also noted in the Athletic, they this could be a trial balloon to see what the market is.

If they wait till summer. Other teams including the Wolves will be able to to offer more draft capital.

The tax savings, in my opinion, that's why this trade was made.

Maybe they trade for giannis, maybe they don't. But whatever trades they make, it will be close to matching salaries so they maintain the tax relief

Let's not forget that that these guys are under capitalized. (No actual evidence that Bloomberg and/or the Google guy are involved.)
 




According to Windhorst, it's appearing more likely that MIL will wait until the offseason before reading Giannis.
 


Also, this cracked me up. I was like, Shams can't get more than a 20 minute nap here and there...
 



Which of the following options would you choose:

1. Give up 2-3 rotation players plus Berenger plus draft capital for Giannis;
2. Randle, Dilly and salary filler for Ja; or
3. Do nothing except for the elimination of the 12 minutes a night going to Conley.

Probably 2. I think randles attitude is a negative for the team. My preference has been to trade randle for depth

Of these 3 options, I'd probably go with #2.

Howl Wolves!!
 




Dosunmu is an excellent acquisition. They got a quality guard who can play 25-30 minutes off of the bench or even start.

The Wolves just got better.
