MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

SMALL – Phoenix sends a 2019 1st round pick (via Miami) for Tyus Jones

He is only 21 years old and has shown in limited action that he can be a solid defensive play making PG (5 assists and 2.8 steals in starts this year).

BIG – Troy Daniels, Marquese Chriss, Alex Len, Tyson Chandler and their own unprotected 2019 1st round pick for Karl Anthony Towns, Gorgui Dieng and Cole Aldrich

The Suns make a godfather offer for KAT which would speed up their playoff hopes immensely and make Devin Booker (Towns’ friend) very happy. The Wolves get a lot of young talent and dump their two worst contracts for Chandler who expires after next season. Phoenix can buy out Aldrich and when given ample minutes, Dieng is actually more than decent (10.9 points, 8.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in starts).
