Timberwolves Tim Connelly is too savvy to trade players at a discount price

There are plenty of scenarios right now that point to the Minnesota Timberwolves panicking after one injury-riddled season and selling key assets at depressed value. Huh? It’s almost as though it’s the NBA version of Black Friday, and the Timberwolves are suddenly the epicenter of 50 to 90 percent off sales of NBA players, under the guise of ‘building around Anthony Edwards.’

I don’t know that I’m buying all that.

Next season? Yes, I could see that. In several years without an NBA Championship for the Minnesota Timberwolves? I could see that too. But right now, the Minnesota Timberwolves squeezed out a 42-40 season in a year when this team rightfully had every excuse not to make the playoffs.
