The Timberwolves are ready to trade! Goodbye, Kyle Lee, could end his NBA career this year
Li Kaier, who hasn't blown our family for a long time, originally wanted to reminisce about the good old days, but saw a bad news.
NBA reporter Siegel reports that the Timberwolves are interested in trading Lee Kyle from the Hawks for Bogdanovic.
There is providence in the dark, Bogdanovic led Serbia in the first game of last year's World Cup, slaughtered the Chinese men's basketball team led by Li Kaier by 42 points, but the two are now going to swap owners.
This season's Lee Kyle has a contract year, but his performance has gone downhill, averaging only 6.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4 assists per game, which is a regression compared with last season (9.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game), and he will come to the CBA next season.
The current Timberwolves are the first in the West, the championship is rising, and it happens to be close to the trade deadline, so they plan to continue to upgrade the roster, so they are eyeing Bogdanovic, a super shooter who can contribute 17.1 points per game and make 3.1 three-pointers per game this season.
Considering the Timberwolves' salary cap situation, Bogdanovich's contract situation is not easy to handle, so he thought about using Li Kyle to add some other chips in exchange.
Bogdanovic agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $68 million with the Hawks early last year, with an annual salary of more than $16 million, and an annual salary of up to $18 million this year.
Fortunately, the swap between Lee Kaier and Bogdanovic is still in the negotiation stage, and it may not be possible, mainly because it is difficult to say that the Eagles may not look down on the former.
Therefore, Lee Kyle is still expected to stay with the Timberwolves for at least the rest of the season, and if he is lucky, he can get a championship ring to add confidence to the new contract negotiations this summer.
Although many people think that the Timberwolves are unlikely to reach the top, they have always believed that it is not as simple as luck to become the first in the West, and they must have their own real materials.
The data shows that the Timberwolves' defensive efficiency this season is at the top of the league with 109.0, and the starting five Tigers, including Towns, can all attack and defend, and defense will still be their most mandatory winning weight in the playoffs and even the Finals.
Of course, our Lee Kyle defense is also on the line, with a personal defensive efficiency of 106.2 to date, ranking 12th in the league, and can compete for the level of DPOY!
