Minnesota Timberwolves trade D'Angelo Russell for Mike Conley, then go out and destroy the Utah Jazz: The Minnesota Timberwolves agreed to trade D'Angelo Russell to the Los Angeles Lakers and acquire Mike Conley from the Utah Jazz just hours before taking the floor in Salt Lake City.

Resetting the Timberwolves cap situation: Can they keep Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker?: Is it possible for the Minnesota Timberwolves to bring back Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker?
