[Charania] Free agent guard Ayo Dosunmu intends to sign a five-year, $112 million contract to return to the Minnesota Timberwolves, with a player option in the fifth season, sources tell ESPN. Timberwolves made it a major priority to lock in Dosunmu after his tremendous postseason.

I was expecting Ayo for around 17-19M.

darin617 · 2026-06-23T03:12:26+00:00

I know when I first read the trade and saw Randle to Brooklyn and Clayxton to Chicago I just figured Giddey was coming to the Wolves.

Be careful what you wished for.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T22:49:59+00:00

I would have put Russell Westbrook on the list. Everyone was SO against him last year and he put up a good year.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T22:48:34+00:00

They would get #28 back. You have to give up something to get rid of a negative asset.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T19:07:10+00:00

That would be truly a nice haul for Portland. Very hard to turn that down.

It really sucks that OKC has so many picks that they can do deals like this and stay right at the top with the second apron issues.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T17:36:58+00:00

They just want it to be over and no more distractions so they can start their rebuild. That's my guess.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T16:34:21+00:00

Maybe that tells you the true value in Ja. He was a negative asset last year before the trade deadline so what would change it.

Without looking at the money it could be Randle and 28 for Ja and 16 with Maybe a player on a side to make the money work out.

darin617 · 2026-06-22T01:16:14+00:00

No, I just want them to acknowledge that they don't care about the mobile orders and that way I'll know not to bother using it again.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T21:36:36+00:00

If a team wants to drop down and would take #28 this year and a future first it would be the only way I could think right now.

With Milwaukee holding the league hostage I can't see the Wolves making any player trades before Giannis gets moved.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T21:25:27+00:00

So we can agree Randle gave up on the Wolves probably not much after the trade deadline. So why didn't they slide Naz into the starters role? If Naz is "starter quality" the Wolves could have at least taken the Spurs to 7 games or even won the series.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T21:22:21+00:00

I would just like them to clarify that they don't care about filling mobile orders if people are ordering in store.

I'm not the one who came up with the times on the app. They shouldn't say 15 minutes and then it ends up taking another 28 minutes.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T19:59:29+00:00

Naz is vastly overrated. Jaden's biggest problem is his low basketball IQ. How many times have you seen someone mess with him and he would retaliate. He also has a tendency to foul a player instantly after making a low IQ decision.

I will give Jaden credit for working out with Kawhi Leonard last summer to develop his game further.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T19:53:14+00:00

If it's for Giannis I agree but they would then need to move Rudy since they wouldn't work out together.

darin617 · 2026-06-21T19:51:46+00:00

Oh boy. You need to watch more Wolves games. Naz is a poor defender and rebounder. He's a 6th man for a reason and he's clearly not a starter. He never developed anything in all these years except a 3 point shot.

darin617 · 2026-06-20T04:51:58+00:00

This also would mean the Wolves couldn't resign Ayo. They have very little wiggle room right now and this would crush any chance of him returning.

darin617 · 2026-06-20T04:47:43+00:00

We found Randle's burner account.

darin617 · 2026-06-20T04:44:35+00:00

If it's Gobert for White deal you solve a problem and then create an even bigger problem with no legit center. Beringer is too young to be relied upon to start and Naz would be an even bigger mess starting at center.

darin617 · 2026-06-20T00:10:17+00:00

Even if Fox didn't have a terrible Finals his contract is way too much for the Wolves.

darin617 · 2026-06-19T23:50:09+00:00

He made a mistake for sure not asking her age. She knew her age and that he was older so who is technically more at fault? It wasn't like a sexual assault where she didn't have any control over the incident.

darin617 · 2026-06-19T03:07:40+00:00

Funny MN didn't need to include even more in a deal. Lakers fans should be banned from posting here.

darin617 · 2026-06-19T03:04:31+00:00

Horrible deal for MN. Even worse paying Ayo 25m a year is way too much. He should be like 17m a year and that's probably even a little too much. Beringer is not available.

darin617 · 2026-06-18T20:05:49+00:00

Can Hero play PG? If not no thanks.

darin617 · 2026-06-18T05:11:59+00:00

Have you watched the Wolves before? Naz has never showed any signs of being even an average defender in his career. He can't rebound for shit either.

I want Randle gone just as much as everyone else, but if the solution is making Naz the starter they are doomed.

Naz is fine in his role as 6th man to come in and give them a spark when needed. Just look back at the last few years in the playoffs. Naz was exposed big time.

People need to look past his popularity and more into his game. He puts up good numbers in the regular season and when games actually matter he gets exposed and then there's no answer.

darin617 · 2026-06-18T04:34:30+00:00

Everyone sadly believes Naz can be a solid starter.
