NBA Trade Rumors: Will Minnesota Timberwolves take the deal to swap Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine for Chicago Bulls’ Jimmy Butler?
Another trade rumor arises as the season continues on. Bulls are persisting in making the changes as they aim to return to the NBA playoffs. The new trade rumor is between the Chicago Bulls (who are currently 5th in the Eastern Conference with 5 wins and 4 losses) and Minnesota Timberwolves and involves the players; Andrew Wiggins, Zach Lavine, and Butler.
A report by HNGN suggested that Chicago Bulls all-star Jimmy Butler and Jerian Grant could swap for acquiring Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine. At the beginning of the season, both teams are expected to perform better as the Bulls able to add Rajon Rondo and Dwayne Wade on their roster right after signing to the team as free agents.
As for the Minnesota Timberwolves selected and signed the rookie sensation, Kris Dunn as their fifth overall pick in the last NBA Draft and have brought in the service of coach Tom Thibodeau to guide and monitor the young team as what he did to the Bulls for over five seasons. But the Timberwolves and Bulls made mixed results after Bulls have 5-4 and Timberwolves have 2-5 and this is not the result what they've envisioned.
A trade would probably help the current situation and make their next games better. In fact, the rumors trade has it all, as per Inquisitr. Having Lavine and Wiggins in the lineup of Bulls give the team talented young players that have the ability to become superstar and star players in the near future though as of now, they may not be able to help the team in the current season but still they can set the goal of the franchise.
In the part of Timberwolves, there may be some hesitations for giving up the team's two assets but having All-star player, Butler, could also be an option for the team. Butler can immediately make a big effect on the defensive and offensive end. And it the trade pushes through, it will be a reunion between Butler and coach Thibodeau whom he coached and guided for four seasons with the Bulls.
The trade could be a perfect opportunity for the Bulls for they can build future and can let Wade guide the two players. But the question is, will the Chicago Bulls and Minnesota Timberwolves take the deal in swapping Jimmy Butler, Zack LaVine, and Andrew Wiggins? Well, looks like fans can have the answers in the next couple of days.
