What players?

From the first tweet and responses in the second, looks like Wiggins.

Odd. That sounds like a win-now move for a team that has a great future ahead of them.

That's an overpay. Wiggins on his own may be better than Butler within a couple years. A top five pick on top of that? Way too much.

That would be a huge overpay. Wiggins could be better than Butler. I doubt it's Wiggins.

If that's the case then I think this rumor is false.

It's been a very long time since they've made the playoffs.

Minnesota desperately wants to win but giving up Wiggins and the 5 for Butler would be a huge mistake.

Wiggins is going to be haunting half the League by next summer.  I can't believe two different teams would be dumb enough to trade him

Wiggins + 5 > Bradley +3 > Levine + 5

Am i right? If Wiggins is a no go, we win.

So I guess the question is who would give up the #3 and AB for Butler?

I like Butler but I don't think I make that move...
