If Teague can get his head straight, he could have a second wind as a bench gunner.

Minnesota throwing in the towel with this trade, right?

They opened up a roster spot and want to trade for a ballhandler. Crabbe is expiring so I think they will decide what to do at the end of season regarding retooling or tanking.

Giving Wiggins the ball more. Ever since Teague been inserted Wiggins been struggling hard until this season when Teague's finally cast out.

They knew Wiggins is now the player of their future especially with uncertainty surrounding Towns. So they'd do anything to get rid of any obstacles that would impede his progress.

And for Hawks, Teague would be a nice backup to Trae and fans loved him there
 
I wonder if they landed a couple seconds in the deal... or if they are doing a follow up trade. Crabbe is trash and Teague is still a solid nba rotation player.

Both guys are expiring... why would you trade Teague for Crabbe if you want to get a ballhandler? Teague is good with the ball... this is a head scratcher as reported.
 
I guess they are looking for outside shooting. Still, I don't think you make this deal unless you are confident that you can get another ball handler (can you say Conley for RoCo+Dieng+1st?)
