Minnesota has made one great big move already and I think this one would help even more. The one downside of their current team is lack of shooting. Adding Porzingis and Chandler helps with this. Wiggins is good but not at level of Porzingis who is a unique talent that if paired with Towns would be an utterly unfair duo that no team would be able to matchup against with two 7 footers who can step out to 3pt line and kill you on both ends of the court. Twolves don't have to do this trade and they'd be alright without it (could use cap space to add some additional talent) but I think that duo or Porzingis and KAT would be a game-changer and a move that could end this "small-ball era" and break the league in a few years.

For the Knicks I think they'd be foolish to move Porzingis and although Wiggins is a good center piece, they add two soid bigs in Faried and Dieng and clear Noah's contract I don't like it for them.

Don't like it for Denver either. That pick is not only far off but would be a late first likely and Muhammad doesn't give you much.

2018 Wolves pick is going to the Hawks, assuming they make the playoffs.

I don't know if Denver is getting enough, but the bones of the trade aren't bad.

If NY is dead set on getting rid of Porzingis, this is a pretty decent haul, but I think I'd like to see Wiggins with a year playing and training with Butler under his belt before I move him if I'm Minny. He trained with Jaylen Brown before this season, and his all around game was a ton better than I think anyone in Boston was expecting. If Wiggins' mental game and competitive nature is in that same ballpark, I think he could make a great leap.

Porzingis is the ideal player type to set up next to KAT, but they might be able to find a similar style player in free agency like Ibaka. Either way, Minny is exciting now.
