My first thought was MN won, but didn't know Randle was hurt. Randle coming off injury and surgery is a pretty big gamble to take trading one of the top 3pt shooters in the entire league, forget among centers. In a league where it's more valued each year, giving that up is enormous.

Divencezo, yes shooting 3 is great and a scrappy defender is high value but now who plays with/off Rudy?

Towns was kind of the odd man out in the playoffs with MN, his skills are wild but can see why MN let him go.

Personally I think KAT is worth more than Randle and Divencezo

Yeah. I didn't watch DVC in NY last year. NY definitely didn't lose this trade, MN seems like lower odds of this being a good tradeoff for them. Unless Randle is exactly the same quality and fits the team, or they get super lucky on a mid first round pick, they basically gave away a big piece for multiple less good pieces.
