Minnesota Timberwolves was big winners in the NBA draft Dillingham Terrance Shannon jr with Ant man.

Spurs did wolves an unreal solid. This was a trade straight out of a video game with your friends. Wolves possibly just got a generational point guard

I think an important piece of the Spurs reasoning was wanting to preserve their ~$25 million in cap space while maintaining the draft asset rather than drafting a player they didn't want and using up $8 million in space

7 years is a long time who knows what either team looks like in 2031

Terrance Shannon Jr, this was a smart move adding more fire power

I agree who gives a shit about 2030. Wolves fan and just not being a terrible team for once in my life is fun now. If 2030 we are bad again at least the next few years are interesting

The picks could also be flipped for a more veteran player who could help them contend sooner than Dillingham. I’m not so sure this is about getting picks down the line but assets to win now/sooner

I think Kevin forgets how bad this draft is lol like the only player I can actually see starting the season as a starter is sarr, so like if your not 100% all in on this pick why take it when you can get more assets back and try again later😊

Awooooo

Hell yeeeeee

Rob lob to Wemby would've been so easy. Love the pick up by the Wolves

Is that Mike Miller or Jason Williams?

“This draft is weak” “I am shocked the Spurs wouldn’t want to make a pick this year instead of a future pick”

This was NOT a BAD DRAFT!!! Every time they say this they are dead wrong but it’s not bad at all. The only REASON these folks called this a bad draft was DUE to there was NO clear cut 1st overall pick like Victor last year for example. That was the only damn reason but I think Zach is good for that pick. There were a bunch of great players this draft. Like come on

"This is one of the weakest drafts in decades if not the weakest" "HoW dArE tHe SpUrs tRaDe ThE 8th pIcK"

Analysts have been saying how weak this draft class is. Saying Sarr is the best player in this class but is equivalent to only a top 10 pick in either last year or next year draft. And now people are clowning on Spurs for trading a low value draft picks for two 1st round picks.

Slow it down, folks. We've seen the likes of Dillingham before. Wait and see how this pans out. That future 1st the Spurs got may be more valuable.

Watch the spurs use that pick in a couple years to get wemby his missing piece

Reminds me too much of when the Jazz traded a bunch of 7th graders to get Trey Burke and it was a massive L

Such a high IQ move from the Spurs. Rob will either not pan out or Spurs will create a huge mismatch in future playoff series against Wolves where Rob will be food on defense for the super versatile team filled with length that Spurs are building. Plus they are getting future assets.

I am sorry but getting two draft picks from a bad draft is not a bad choice. The value of the wolves near term picks (which they already traded) is very low cause they are a good team. Getting far away picks is more valuable. Also the Spurs have brought in 5 rookies in the last 3 years, all of which are like 19 year old as rookies. They don't need a short PG with no defense. Spurs did a smart move. Not for the media's obsession for Wemby getting another "Star" but for the development of a title team when Victor reaches his prime in 3-4 years

The genius move will be remembered from the Spurs when they make a win-now trade using the picks a few years from now.

It was very Timberwolves of Minnesota to mortgage their future for a speculative pick in a historically bad draft.

lol the wolves will never go anywhere with towns as 2nd best player. Not too mention gobert sucks

They've got Juan Nuñez > Nikola Topic, Manu scouted him. So the trade with Wolves set Spurs for better lottery talent with 2031 future 1st and 2030 pick swap top 1 protected. Note: Wolves called the 8th pick, not the Spurs.
