no - its Ronnie Brewer (CHI) - he's a solid player with a .134 WS/48 over his career. .100 would be an NBA average player. Good defender, smart player who knows his role. Smart people at Canis are saying he'd be a better fit than C Lee because he's better at guarding NBA SFs. I remember watching him last season thinking to myself that I wished the Wolves had a wing as good as him.

Wes will have a hard time seeing the floor at all if we end up with these guys.
In other news, Birdman was amnestied. He would be a very nice addition (instead of Steamer) imo, but I hear we aren't interested. His age (34, but whogivesa**** imo - he'd be a short term backup anyway) and legal status (probably a false accusation by a stalker, which is way less concerning to me than J Hill, who might go to jail for 10 years) probably have something to do with that.
Trade DWill before his trade value falls through the floor like Wes' did imo - he is a 4, not a 3, and he never will be a good NBA 3. He can not do the things that good NBA 3s can do (handle the ball, guard other 3s, pass - he's one of the worst passing 4s in the NBA for that matter). He could be a decent 4, but he has little to no place to do that on this team.
Trade Wes for a 2025 protected 2nd round pick imo.
