The Athletic was the first to report Wednesday that Timberwolves forward Jimmy Butler is asking for a trade out of Minnesota. WCCO's Chad Hartman says given Butler's history, it isn't terribly surprising. Still, Hartman, a former Wolves broadcaster who is still close to the team, says it's a gut punch to Wolves fans, coach Tom Thibodeau, and owner Glen Taylor.
WCCO's Adam Carter talked to Chad about today's developments, and what may be behind Butler's demand.
