Jimmy Butler has requested a trade from the Minnesota Timberwolves, league sources tell me and @JonKrawczynski. Butler has given Minnesota a list of one-to-three teams with whom he's open to signing extension, in anticipation of trade.

Even though there are some reports that Wiggins and Towns had nothing to do with Jimmy Butler wanting to be traded, BSO sources tell us that is a lie.
Butler never felt Wiggins and Towns took the game as serious as he did and felt they would never win with them being core pieces, this is one of the main reasons he wants out.
Wiggins’ brother celebrating the trade news just confirms that.
