The Houston Rockets are in a strange situation this offseason with James Harden seemingly trying to force his way out of town. Russell Westbrook has already been traded, but Harden could be on the move next. Could a potential blockbuster trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves happen that would pair Harden with Karl-Anthony Towns?

Wow, that first paragraph was a lot to take in. A blockbuster trade between the Rockets and Timberwolves has not even been rumored at this point in time. But, it could very well make perfect sense for both teams involved.

Up to this point in time, Harden has still not reported to camp for the Rockets. He has been partying it up at night clubs, but has been unwilling to get to camp with his teammates. That alone should make the Rockets want to get a trade done at some point in the near future.

Harden is coming off of yet another massive season in 2019-20, averaging 34.3 points per game to go along with 7.5 assists and 6.6 rebounds. He shot 44.4 percent from the floor overall and knocked down 35.5 percent of his three-point attempts while shooting 12.4 of them per game.

Without further delay, let’s dive in and take a look at a potential blockbuster trade that would send James Harden from the Rockets to the Timberwolves to pair up with Karl-Anthony Towns.
