We are two days out from the NBA trade deadline, and the Wolves’ focus, according to the internet, is clarifying. It appears they are trying to flip Robert Covington for draft assets, which would then be combined with some of their own stuff to acquire D’Angelo Russell from the Golden State Warriors.
Of course, other things could shake that up at any time, and I’m confident the Wolves are speaking with many teams across the league about different scenarios, but the above seems to be their primary goal.
The issue, of course, is what it would take for the Warriors to move by Thursday.
