Timberwolves trading Julius Randle to Nets as part of 3-team deal, AP source says
The Minnesota Timberwolves are trading Julius Randle and a first-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets as part of a three-team deal that also includes the Chicago Bulls, a person with knowledge of the terms said Monday night. The Timberwolves are sending the 28th pick in Tuesday's draft to the Nets and will be receiving the No. 33 pick that will be made in the second round on Wednesday night, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal has not received the required approvals from the league office. ESPN, which first reported the deal, also said the Bulls would be receiving Nic Claxton from Brooklyn in the trade.
