The Minnesota Timberwolves have had a tough postseason, as they once again fell short of putting together a title-contending season with Anthony Edwards. Ant-Man is one of the upcoming superstars of the league, and team success would matter at some point. Even though the front office has made it clear that they would try to put better pieces around Edwards next season, some sources also suggest an unfortunate outcome.<\/p>\n
While Donte DiVincenzo<\/a> suffered a season-ending ankle sprain, Edwards played through injury to get the team its best shot against the defensive prowess of the San Antonio Spurs. As per insider Darren Wolfson, the elite shooting guard might, at some point, feel a need for a change. Even though it\u2019s not relevant currently, Wolfson mentioned a \u201cfear.\u201d<\/p>\n Edwards is under a 5-year, $245 million rookie extension with the Wolves that he signed in 2023. However, if the franchise fails to put a championship team around him, he might get lured to another destination. Let\u2019s look at four favorable destinations Anthony Edwards can look to if he ever decides to don new colors.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Even though it would be a wild switch, the possibility can not be denied. The Heat front office has reportedly been pursuing Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a> since February. However, if things did not fall into place in Milwaukee<\/a>, the Heat might turn towards Anthony Edwards. Moreover, he\u2019ll be in the East, with better chances to come out of the conference alive.<\/p>\n Moreover, Ant has praised the city multiple times and once also hailed head coach Erik Spoelstra and his management. Fans have speculated that the All-Star guard might be interested in moving to Miami. The organization also has a few first-round picks that the Timberwolves would surely be interested in.<\/p>\n The Suns have not been able to come out of the middle of the standings for some time now. The franchise has tried several combinations with Devin Booker<\/a>, but nothing has seemed to work. Even though they don\u2019t have a lot to offer, the front office can make a package with Booker and the last few of the trade assets they got. They need a leader with a hunger to win a title.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Given that the Bucks would have the most lucrative trade piece on the market this offseason, this would be something the Timberwolves would be interested in. A superstar for another superstar might be the most ideal scenario for both teams if the Bucks are fine with getting a backcourt piece for a frontcourt genius.<\/p>\n Notably, the Bucks squad is also not a fitting roster for Edwards as of now. However, if the team can put together a good squad, there might be a possibility.<\/p>\n The Brooklyn Nets are set to pick sixth in the upcoming draft and might land a good rookie to an already young roster. Moreover, the franchise has a collection of draft assets to offer to the Bucks, along with a significant cap space to accommodate Edwards\u2019 upcoming contract extension.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Moreover, Michael Porter Jr.<\/a> has made a lot of noise this season, as he seemed to have unlocked his abilities in a place where he can play more openly. Getting a leader like Anthony Edwards might also give him a hope of winning his second title, this time with the Nets.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Victor Wembanyama Pressure Cooker Builds as Stephen A.
