This one is tricky.
The Timberwolves raised a lot of eyebrows across the NBA when they gave up four players and five number ones to get the multi-time Defensive Player of the Year, Rudy Gobert. It was a lot to give up, but the results have been scary thus far.
The Frenchman had solid numbers in 2022/23, averaging a double-double with 13.4 Points and 11.6 Rebounds per Game. This is good, but down from his previous All-Star years, and the meshing of him and Karl-Anthony Towns has yet to be fruitful.
Although Gobert only played one year, and it did not meet expectations, it was statistically good enough for him to be ranked on a team this young, and without a lot of success. Still, this could be the trade that buries Minnesota for years.
