The\u00a0Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a>\u00a0gave the Utah Jazz an enormous package of players and picks in\u00a0the Rudy Gobert trade<\/a>\u00a0this offseason. The deal hasn\u2019t worked out well for the T\u2019wolves, and things went from bad to worse when the center\u00a0punched his teammate<\/a>\u00a0in the last game of the regular season, and the team won without him. Now, Minnesota would surely love to get out from under the Rudy Gobert contract, but the deal looks so bad right now only one NBA team would trade for him: The\u00a0Brooklyn Nets with Ben Simmons<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
