Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert took time to develop chemistry before things blossomed last season. Halfway through this year, what have you thought of the new adjustments with Julius Randle,

"Rival executives believe the Timberwolves will be seeking a Julius Randle trade before the deadline for a better on-court fit alongside Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert," Sidery reported Thursday.

In a shocking turn of events, they decided to salary-dump Karl-Anthony Towns in a trade with the New York Knicks.

The trade was predicated on the belief that Randle isn’t a long-term player for Minnesota and that the Timberwolves will shop for a point guard.

There’s been plenty of rumors and rumblings regarding the play and attitude of Minnesota Timberwolves forward Julius Randle. We used to complain about Karl-Anthony Towns’ defense; now we complain about Julius Randle’s defense.
