The hints are getting hard to deny.
In his summary of free agency Saturday morning, Zach Lowe wrote this: “Minnesota has sniffed around [D’Angelo] Russell, though the Nets have no interest in Jeff Teague on the other end of any sign-and-trade, sources say.”
This followed a report out of Minnesota two days ago. According to Darren Wolfson of SKOR North, a respected media group, the Timberwolves approached the Nets about another potential sign-and-trade that would have sent Russell to Minny for Andrew Wiggins, the 6’8” shooting guard with a contract that has four years and $122 million left on his deal.
