Golden State Warriors Receive: Karl-Anthony Towns
Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: James Wiseman, Draymond Green, 2021 1st Round Pick (via MIN), 2022 1st Round Pick, 2025 1st Round Pick
Karl-Anthony Towns is one of the best big men in the NBA when healthy. His time in Minnesota has seen him put up incredible individual numbers but his team has struggled.
Towns would benefit greatly from going to a contending team with hopes of winning come the postseason. Alongside a talent like Steph Curry, the one-two punch they’d form would be genuinely intriguing. It would become all the more potent once Klay Thompson returns to the lineup.

The return would not be cheap. It would cost the Warriors a young talent like James Wiseman, who they selected No. 2 overall in the 2020 NBA Draft. Draymond Green would be another piece that would have to be on the move. This duo, along with three first-round picks, would be the complete package.
Let’s take a look and see how this deal would help both sides accomplish their goals.
