The Minnesota Timberwolves and Washington Wizards have a few too many similarities. With news earlier this year that the latter is looking to clear some salary off the books, could the Wolves swoop in and take advantage?
Wizards guard Bradley Beal has been playing lights out this season, averaging 24.7 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game while being named to his second consecutive All-Star Game.
Beal is a rare talent that can play a point guard role or off the ball as a catch-and-shoot shooting guard. Teaming Beal with Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins would instantly elevate the Wolves back into playoff contention.
