MIN-POR

[Minnesota Timberwolves]

Timberwolves Send:
Zhaire Smith 1.0/1.0/2.0/3.0

Blazers Send:
Dragan Bender 2.6/3.3/4.4

The Timberwolves shed $1.0 million for the 2018-19 season

Zhaire was going to be a project when I drafted him, I didn’t see the broken foot and allergic reaction keeping him out all year. Hopefully he pans out, but I’d rather have the IR spot than wait at this point.

Blazers accept. You know when people say to give prospects at least 3 years to pan out? Well... to quote a dear friend of mine: "It's about that time. We not playin' no more." Might as well take a roll of the dice on another promising player who has a decent chance of breaking out on a putrid Sixers bench. The cap I gotta take on isn't too bad either.

Surprised to see Dragan Bender was still in the league!

Anyway. I approve.

[Dallas Mavericks]

There's a 90% chance Dragan Bender doesn't play in the NBA past next season but seeing as how the Pelicans have a tendency to pick up any and all Euros, the Wolves can always dump him on them.

I approve.
