In an offseason filled with turmoil and drama for the Minnesota Timberwolves, everything skyrocketed to an even more chaotic level on Friday night.
Following a reported Jimmy Butler’s trade request on Wednesday and subsequent reports that coach Tom Thibodeau refused to move his star guard, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski dropped a bomb about the level of dysfunction in Minnesota’s front office.
Conflicting messages out of Minnesota about whether the team is willing to trade Butler or not, were thrown for a loop with Wojnarowski’s report that team owner Glen Taylor is ready to trade the All-Star guard.
In a story filled with non-stop drama, Twitter immediately reacted to the latest chapter in a story that continues to indicate an organization in complete dysfunction.
