The Minnesota Timberwolves are just a hair above .500, currently sitting in ninth in the Western Conference. It's a far cry from their 2023-24 season during which they won 56 games and made the conference finals.
ESPN's Kendrick Perkins suggested Wednesday that their decision to offload Karl-Anthony Towns in exchange for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo is the catalyst behind their woes throughout the first half of the season. Perkins lambasted the Timberwolves over the deal, going as far as to call it the worst trade in NBA history.
