The Minnesota Timberwolves’ center and forward, Karl Anthony Towns, might play for the Mavericks in the upcoming season. The Suns have got a star-studded squad, which makes them a contender, at least on paper. The Mavericks would like to do the same. They have Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving as their superstars.
The Dominican American played 29 games for the Timberwolves last season and averaged 20.8 points, 4.8 assists, and 8.1 rebounds while shooting 36.6 percent 3-pointers. Karl has not been as great as the Timberwolves had expected. They tried to cover up for him but things didn’t work out. Now, they would like to trade him off while they can get good returns for the players. The Mavericks are up for doing that, can they land him this summer? Here is all the information you need about the trade between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Dallas Mavericks involving Karl Anthony Towns.
What would the Mavericks offer for Karl Anthony Towns?
The Mavericks can offer Tim Hardaway, Grant Williams, Jaden Hardy, Josh Green, and a first-round pick each from the years 2027,2028 and 2030 in exchange for the Kentucky Wildcats product. A team should look for talent if they are a contender in that particular season since many teams win championships and each one is built differently. One thing that is common in all of them is immense talent.
