[Matt Moore] Several teams have called about Reid as a potential solution to their backup center options, but there’s now a belief that the Wolves will not trade the big man and instead look to sign him to an extension

    so… how much salary are we going to devote to the center position?

    Once KAT is back I need to see a jumbo lineup of Anderson, McDaniels, NAZ, KAT, Gobert

    Elongated sign and trade? It’s tough to trade Naz with how low his salary is. He’s either got to be paired with another player or return another player making peanuts. Just tough to get equal value. Sign him to a fair deal and give him and his agent the freedom to find a fit in the offseason.

    However if he extends I don’t think he’s eligible to be traded for six months so sometime in August if it gets done. I guess teams could agree to terms while they wait for Naz’ eligibility similar to how we knew the Love/Wiggins deal was getting done before it could officially be done.

    Still think we should sell high. Maybe package him with Nowell, who we can maybe trick a team into considering a “promising young player”.

    I mean, he spaces the floor. Maybe naz is the first sub when KAT and Rudy start? I might be seeing w rose colored glasses but the defense hasn’t been that bad when naz and Rudy have shared the floor lately right?

    A lot of the “whispers” are quite possibly us just trying to squeeze the market to up the return value in any potential tire kicks. TC’s gotta get some draft capital back.

    KAT being out makes it tough to do any big trades. Dlo/Ant/McDaniels/Slomo/Gobert lineup is working. Dlo and Ant run the offense. McDaniels, Slomo and Gobert lock down defense. We haven’t figured out how to make it work with KAT back in the mix. Move Slowmo out of the starting lineup for KAT and maybe we need less shooting from PG and more passing & defense. Or maybe they just need more time playing together to figure it out. It’s hard to say and hard to trade Dlo, Naz Reid or any other good trade assets until you can answer that question.

    I wonder how much of this is true vs just normal trade posturing.

    My guess trying to up Naz’s trade value but time will tell
