Thaddeus Young: On His Way To Wolves As Part Of Kevin Love Deal

Young will be traded to Minnesota as part of the Cavaliers-Wolves trade involving Kevin Love, the Philadelphia Enquirer reports.

Analysis:

Young will to head to the Timberwolves as part of a three-team deal, with the Sixers set to land former No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett in return. The terms from all sides have yet to be made official, but the key pieces seem to be locked in. Young will likely see heavy minutes in Minnesota as the primary replacement for Kevin Love. The 26-year-old Young averaged a career-high 17.9 points per game in his 2013-14 season, and although he won't be relied upon as heavily as a scorer for the Wolves, his rebounding and shot-blocking ability still make him a reliable fantasy option.
