The Minnesota Timberwolves agreed to send forward Julius Randle and the 28th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft to the Brooklyn Nets. The three-team transaction also moves center Nic Claxton to the Chicago Bulls and creates salary flexibility for Minnesota to re-sign guard Ayo Dosunmu.
CBS SportsThe Minnesota Timberwolves agreed on June 22 to trade forward Julius Randle and the 28th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft to the Brooklyn Nets as part of a three-team deal. The Nets will send center Nic Claxton to the Chicago Bulls and the 33rd pick to Minnesota. The Bulls will send forward Mo Gueye to the Timberwolves.
Randle's $33.3 million salary for the 2026-27 season moves to the Nets, while Claxton's $23.3 million salary shifts to the Bulls. The transaction creates a $33.3 million trade exception for Minnesota and leaves the team with the $15.1 million non-taxpayer midlevel exception and the $5.5 million bi-annual exception available.
The Timberwolves intend to sign forward Ayo Dosunmu to a five-year, $112 million contract that includes a player option in the fifth season.
Dosunmu, 26, averaged 19.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists on 50 percent shooting in the 2026 postseason after Minnesota acquired him from Chicago at the trade deadline. Randle, 31, averaged 21.1 points, 6.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists on 48.1 percent shooting during the 2025-26 regular season. He averaged 12.8 points on 34 percent shooting in six playoff games against the San Antonio Spurs.
Claxton, 27, averaged 11.7 points on 57.1 percent shooting and 6.9 rebounds in his seventh NBA season, all with Brooklyn. The deal cannot be finalized until July 6 because Chicago is using cap space to acquire Claxton.
