Minnesota Timberwolves Interested in Trading for Jimmy Butler

The NBA Draft is next week and the Minnesota Timberwolves are currently scheduled to pick fifth. That selection might be made for Chicago come Draft night.

ESPN's Marc Stein is reporting that the Timberwolves are interested in trading for Jimmy Butler, and are willing to exchange the fifth overall pick for him.

Butler played for new Wolves coach Tom Thibodeau from 2011-2015. It is also rumored that the Timberwolves are interested in Joakim Noah also.
