    Gabe outplayed DiVincenzo in our series IMO. No thanks on that one.

    Why would the Wolves do this? He's been a good player for them. No reason to dump him unless hes part of a bigger package (morant?, trae?)

    Yeah, lost on that as well unless it’s payroll/small market related

    They have significant future money tied up in Ant/Gobert/Randle/McDaniels/Reid and its becoming obvious that they need another competent ballhandler next to Ant. Conley is aging out, Dillingham isn't ready yet (and may never be) and DiVincenzo isn't really someone you give the ball to run your offense. I think they want to get off of his money and get a draft asset back that they can use to try and find a better backcourt fit.

    He's really good though. Yeah he's not a pg but he's like the 14th best guard in the league based on WAR.

    At age 28 he's probably got a good 4 years in his prime. I'd consider a top 5 protected first for him. That being said while I think that's fair compensation for him I still would not do it of I was the Wolves he a legit 2 way guard
