In early October 2024, the Knicks and Timberwolves made a blockbuster trade. After nine seasons, Minnesota parted ways with former #1 overall pick Karl-Anthony Towns.
New York traded Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo to Minnesota. Early on, the trade seemed to favor the Knicks, but that’s changed in the second half of this season. Randle and DiVincenzo are key pieces of the Timberwolves’ roster, and New York is thriving as a team. Ahead of Game 5 on Wednesday, Donte DiVincenzo told the media that the trade between the Knicks and Timberwolves “is a win-win for both sides.”
