WOW! Morant + Edwards! It is revealed that the Timberwolves intend to form a double gun

Morant was previously suspended for one game by the Grizzlies for behavior detrimental to the interests of the team (confronting the head coach). In the two games since his return, he has made a total of 11 of 35 shots (1 of 11 three-pointers), 35 points, 10 rebounds, 18 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, and 11 turnovers...

Does this guy still want to play in the Grizzlies? If it really doesn't work, apply for a trade. It would be bad for everyone if the stalemate continues. The current contract expires in the summer of 2028. This season's salary is US$39.45 million, and the salary in the last two seasons is US$42.17 million and US$44.89 million respectively.

There are currently endless rumors about Morant's trade. Recently, the US media "BF" published the odds of his new destination. The Kings ranked first at 38%, followed by the Heat at 29%, followed by the Timberwolves at 20%, the Suns at fourth at 18%, and the Hawks at fifth at 14%.

Amick said that the Timberwolves are paying close attention to Morant's trading trends and are trying to use him + Edwards to form an explosive backcourt duo.

Not to mention, Morant + Edwards are a good match. Although both are known for their excellent athletic ability, the latter has already developed a stable three-point shooting ability and can switch to off-ball mode. So far this season, he has averaged 3 three-pointers with a 46.2% shooting rate per game. Last season, he averaged 39.5% shooting rate and scored 4.1 three-pointers.

However, some people are worried that Morant's arrival will affect the Timberwolves' chemical reaction. Moreover, their current second-in-command Randall is already good enough. He has averaged 26.8 points, 6.9 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game so far this season, with three shooting percentages of 56%, 44.2% and 84.9%. There is no need to destroy the current core framework.

By the way, Morant, who was used to being the boss in the Grizzlies, would be willing to play a supporting role for Edwards when he went to the Timberwolves? This is also a question worth thinking about. If you are not careful, you may ignite the locker room. After all, neither of them has a good temper.

The Timberwolves have been defeated in the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive years, and they are bound to want to go further. However, this does not mean that they will rush to the doctor and form a team of stars. In competitive sports, sometimes 1+1 may not necessarily equal 2 or even less than 2. Think twice before doing the best.
