We’ve seen Jimmy Butler terrorize Andrew Wiggins and Karl Anthony Towns for a few months and they have finally traded the disgruntled star along with Justin Patton. The Philadelphia 76ers landed the guard for forwards Dario Saric, Robert Covington, Jerryd Bayless and a 2nd round pick.
This move makes the 76ers that more of a threat to win the East. The Timberwolves can now work on repairing the mental health of their two stars.
Butler is averaging 21.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists on 47.1% shooting from the field.
Minnesota will also trade Justin Patton and acquire a second round pick in the trade, league sources tell ESPN. https://t.co/oMXzL7oEen
