Hornets trade LaMelo Ball to Timberwolves: Here are the reported details originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
Another NBA All-Star is on the move.
Days after the Miami Heat acquired Giannis Antetokounmpo, there’s been another blockbuster trade. The Charlotte Hornets reportedly will send LaMelo Ball and Josh Green to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Naz Reid and a haul of draft picks and swaps.
ESPN’s Shams Charania first reported the deal Thursday morning.
The draft picks going back to Charlotte include Minnesota’s 2033 unprotected first-round pick, three first-round pick swaps (2028, 2029, 2030) and three second-round picks (2029, 2032, 2033), Charania said.
This is a developing story and will be updated with more information.
