Minnesota is weighing a tough call as reports suggest the Timberwolves are open to trading rookie guard amid win-now pressure.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are in-need of a point guard, and a recent trade idea finally pairs a proper playmaker with Anthony Edwards.
At 33 years old and in his 13th year in the league, the Timberwolves' center is playing as well as he has ever played.

Anthony Edwards scored 26 points and the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Miami Heat for the second time in four days, 122-94.
Over the past four days, Erik Spoelstra got an up-close look at what makes the Minnesota Timberwolves so dangerous. The longtime Miami Heat head coach watched as the Wolves pulled away from his team in South Florida on Saturday night, then blasted them in the second half of a 28-point win in Minneapolis on Tuesday.
They held Miami to just 36% shooting. Up and down the roster the Wolves got contributions with six players in double figures. Anthony Edwards led the way with 26 points while Jaden McDaniels added 19 and Naz Reid had 14. Julius Randle (15 points, 11 rebounds) and Rudy Gobert (13 and 17) each had double doubles.
The Miami Heat may be without multiple key players in Tuesday night’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
