NBA Trade Rumors: One priority for every team approaching the deadline

Minnesota Timberwolves

NBA Trade Deadline priority: Acquire Ben Simmons 

There’s no question in my mind that the Minnesota Timberwolves should be all over the Ben Simmons sweepstakes. If there are not many teams that are willing to give up what it takes to land Simmons, the Wolves should be one of them.

I’m intrigued to see what this team could look like with a core of Simmons, Anthony Edwards, and Karl-Anthony Towns. Perhaps it’s something that could get this franchise back on the right track and back to the postseason.

The Wolves would likely need a third team to get it done, but if there’s one deal that the Wolves make at the trade deadline, it should be for Simmons.
