Minnesota Timberwolves
Bad contract to explore trading: Karl-Anthony Towns (4 years, $220 million)
The Minnesota Timberwolves are experiencing a memorable season, one that will likely come down to a second-round NBA playoff matchup with the Denver Nuggets. But no matter how this season ends for the Wolves, it's already considered a success. Anything they're able to do in the offseason to add to the team will only cement this team's status as a potential championship contender moving forward. But if the Wolves wanted to move off one of their "bad" contracts, they should look no further than the four years, $220 million that is still due on Karl-Anthony Towns' deal.
Trading KAT could be easier said than done but I think there's a very real chance that the Wolves could consider such a move. Even though KAT has been a productive and positive player for Minnesota this season, there's a case to be made that he may not be considered a foundational piece for the team anymore.
With how well Anthony Edwards has continued to develop, this is a team that is going to revolve around him moving forward. If the Wolves can find a team to take on KAT, I'm not sure how the Wolves can say no to that.
