I hate to be the dummy that asks questions that are answerable with a Google search, but I thought he couldn't be traded yet.

I guess I don't hate being that guy that much.

Wright can be traded at any time, he just can't be packaged in a multi-player deal without some fancy, complex, magic workarounds.

Phoenix is sending Boston the first-round pick that it owns via Minnesota, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

Guys, any protection for that pick?

He can be traded by himself immediately. But there's a waiting period before he can be combined with another player in a trade.

Haha no chance.

What are the odds Danny finally starts USING all those draft picks he stockpiled?  Wright and our first?  Is Len better than anyone we might get in the draft?

So Rondo trade looking better with another pick....
A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.

Here's the pick:

Quote
2015 first round draft pick from Minnesota
Minnesota's 1st round pick to Phoenix protected for selections 1-12 in 2015 and 1-12 in 2016; if Minnesota has not conveyed a 1st round pick to Phoenix by 2016, then Minnesota will instead convey its 2016 2nd round pick and 2017 2nd round pick to Phoenix [Minnesota-New Orleans-Phoenix, 7/27/2012]

Noooice!!  A couple 2nd rounders for Wright (can't see Minny finishing outside of the bottom 12 next year despite how great Wiggins looks).   The Rondo package is starting to look good.
