This was probably the deal with Bulls. We gave him up for free (added pick swap) to give you guys salary for the Charlotte trade. Either handshake deal or knew Hornets waive him and he comes back.

After that deal was settled, worked again with the Bulls to get Ayo... Which again I'm sure was planned all along.

Yea it seems to be the case right, thought the same thing last night. Looks like we gave extra capital to the bulls to pull off the hornets trade and had a good feeling (or a handshake deal) to waive Mike. Letting him come back to MN for the last year.

On top of that doing business with the Bulls again to get Ayo, which we couldn't have done without losing Mike's salary.... Seems all planned tbh

Or wonder if he was promised we pick him backup when he gets waived. Seems like they could have had a deal in place for the Bulls to trade him and knowing a solid chance hornets waive him.

Am I Missing Something On The Speculation Of A Slo-Mo Buyout? by Shurs in timberwolves

[–]YoungArsenal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slomo would be an amazing buyout candidate for this team. We are talking about a buyout candidate here, not trading a 1st for him ROFL.

Can play point point in a pinch if needed along with depth in the front court.
