NBA Young Core Rankings

My favorite part about this list is Wiggins not even making the top 3 of young players on the Wolves.

Good observation. They put a rookie in Culver over him, as well as a 2nd year player in Okogie.

They shouldn't have both of those guys over him. Pick one guy (whether it's the unknown rookie, or perhaps expected breakout player in Okogie). Can't have two unproven quantities over Wiggins.

In my mind it works because Wiggins is an active negative on the roster. He is an inefficient volume scorer that checks out on defense. Okogie adds value on the defensive end, and Culver should be able to step in right away.

I was excited when I saw that Rosas was confident in his ability to trade Wiggins, but disappointed that like all of his claims in his first year he has lofty aspirations but no follow through.

I agree with you about Wiggins. I do think that until Culver has proven himself a little bit, like a few months worth of games at least, then I wouldn't put him over Wiggins.
