The Minnesota Timberwolves agreed to trade star big man Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks on Saturday night, but the full terms weren’t known yet. The picture is now clear thanks to the Charlotte Hornets’ involvement.
The trade has been agreed upon by all parties, via ESPN’s Bobby Marls.
“Here are the agreed trade details, per sources. The trade call has not taken place yet,” Marks reported.
“New York receives: Karl-Anthony Towns (from MIN) and the draft rights of James Nnaji (from Charlotte)
Minnesota receives: Julius Randle (from NYK), Donte DiVincenzo (from NYK), Keita Bates-Diop (from NYK) and 2025 top-13 protected Detroit first (via NYK)
Note: The first from Detroit is top-11 protected in 2026, top-9 protected in 2027. It will turn into a 2027 second from Detroit if not conveyed in 2025, 2026 or 2027.
Charlotte receives: 2025 second (least favorable of Denver or Philly via Minnesota), 2026 (Golden State via NYK), 2031 second (from NYK), DaQuan Jeffries (sign-and-trade from NYK), Charlie Brown Jr. (sign-and-trade from NYK), Darius Washington (sign-and-trade from NYK) and $7.2M cash.”
