The Timberwolves are expect Ricky Rubio to come and play for them next year, so Jonny Flynn could be trade bait. The Timberwolves certainly have a lot of other holes on their team, so it might be a good idea...
"The Timberwolves grow more confident by the day that Rubio will finally come over from Europe to join their squad next season, effectively making Flynn expendable," wrote Bill Ingram of HOOPSWORLD. "Recognizing this, no fewer than seven teams have reached out to the Timberwolves with interest in Flynn, with interest ranging from teams looking for a solid back-up to teams looking for a long-term starter."
Ingram lists the Kings, Clippers, Blazers, Raptors, Knicks, Bobcats and Cavs as the seven teams that have expressed some level of interest in Flynn (ESPN).
They could wait until after the season to make a deal, which might be smart just to be safe if Rubio screws them over, but if the right deal comes along I think they have to jump on it.
