who did the timberwolves trade

The Timberwolves’ big reported move was trading Naz Reid and multiple draft picks to the Hornets for LaMelo Ball and Josh Green. A separate earlier deal also sent Julius Randle and the No. 28 pick to the Nets as part of a multi-team trade.

What moved

  • To Minnesota: LaMelo Ball, Josh Green.
  • To Charlotte: Naz Reid, draft picks including a future first-rounder, pick swaps, and second-rounders.
  • Earlier Timberwolves deal: Julius Randle and the No. 28 pick went to Brooklyn.

Why people are talking about it

This is being framed as a major offseason swing because Minnesota is reshaping its roster around a star backcourt fit with Anthony Edwards. The reporting describes it as one of the biggest moves the team has made this summer.
