Episode Details

The Minnesota Timberwolves face a pivotal decision at the trade deadline as they weigh picking up Julian Phillips’ team option for $2.4 million next season. Just 22, drafted 35th last year, Phillips hasn’t played much but flashes elite defensive potential—steals and blocks per 36 minutes that have analysts like John Hollinger buzzing. His projected salary via BORD$? $3.7 million—making him a steal if the Wolves keep him on a budget. With limited cap space and a need for affordable depth, locking him in could be a smart move to bolster the bench without breaking the bank.
