Here’s what I wrote about Jaden McDaniels in Minnesota. Barring a trade, Minnesota is entering second apron territory next season.
With Gobert’s trade value being at an all-time low and the Timberwolves looking to head straight into the overly restrictive *second* tax apron after nearly two decades of avoiding the tax, it’s looking more and more like a KAT trade is on the horizon.
Trading KAT only sheds salary if they trade him for expiring contracts or to a team way under the cap that can take him into space without sending back salary.
But those kind of trades don’t make sense for a team that’s trying to contend.
They will get talent back. It won’t be a salary dump.
