My follow up question is. How else does Minnesota get another player they needed to have a legitimate championship caliber team? They needed a rim protector that was obvious in the Memphis series. Contending teams don't care much about 1st round picks so that is why they can give so many of them. Lottery picks are a different story. Will it work out? Who knows, but its better than having this team lose out in the 1st round the next 3 years and lose Ant. They are going after it in their window of opportunity. Good for them.
