The Minnesota Timberwolves’ decision to pair Karl-Anthony Towns with Rudy Gobert did not pay off, resulting in the Timberwolves being one of the most disappointing teams in the NBA and quickly being bounced from the postseason. As a result, several teams have shown interest in acquiring Towns for their rosters.
Potential Suitors for Towns
Among the teams executives mentioned as potential suitors for Towns are Brooklyn and Miami, two teams that are expected to come up in any potential superstar trade talks in the next six months. However, it is worth mentioning that Miami’s Jimmy Butler has a rocky history with Towns. Portland and Indiana are also being considered as possible destinations for Towns, with a postulation of Damian Lillard being involved in a deal.
New York as the Most Likely Landing Spot
According to Sean Deveney of Heavy.com, should Boston consider dealing away All-Star wing Jaylen Brown, which is a longshot, the Celtics could offer the best single player in return for Towns. However, if a move for Towns does come about, it’s believed that New York remains the most likely landing spot for the talented player.
