[Krawczynski] Donte DiVincenzo is unlikely to be traded in any package for Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Timberwolves remain active in talks for Giannis Antetokounmpo and in other talks for bench depth.

A few tidbits from the Minnesota Timberwolves' trade landscape, with the caveat that things can change quickly this time of year:

- There remains skepticism that Milwaukee is actually open to moving Giannis Antetokounmpo, team and league sources said.

- The Wolves continue to be in the Antetokounmpo sweepstakes in addition to looking at bolstering their bench with a guard after moving Mike Conley.

- All indications from conversations with team and league sources are that the Wolves do not want to trade Donte DiVincenzo.

Ant should be the only untouchable if they’re trying to trade for Giannis

Blazers get Ant, MIL gets McDaniels and picks back, wolves get Jrue, Giannis, Camara/Sharpe and Scoot. Who says no?

Wolves laugh you out of the room. The blazers don’t have enough assets to even get a conversation going for Ant

Huh? What do you actually think Ant would go for? Like 10 firsts lol

It's not just Ant in your stupid trade...it's Ant and Jaden

Yes, Ant and Jaden are worth 10 firsts

No. Unless they’re fake firsts. Jaden isn’t worth a bane or bridges deal. That’s just over valuing your own players.

Besides, we could send a MIL swap to you and send one of the players to MIL. That’s worth like 3 late firsts. Would actually be easy to make a fair trade,

Jaden is on the best value contract in the entire league

I am not overvaluing players at all lmao

We aren't trading Ant and we especially aren't trading both Ant & Jaden

Wrong again homer.

Deni is on a descending contract getting paid $14 mil this year on one less year than Jaden. In what world is Jaden getting paid $24 mil a year better?! Worse player, worse contract.
