Patrick Beverley keeps moving around the NBA. After getting traded to the Memphis Grizzlies, the veteran point guard is on his way to Minnesota.
Bev saw his career changed in the past couple of years after the Los Angeles Clippers signed Kawhi Leonard and traded for Paul George. After losing his starting spot on the Clippers lineup, the guard was traded to Memphis in exchange for Eric Bledsoe.
His tenure in Tennessee didn’t start and is already finished, as the Grizzlies are trading the player to the Minnesota Timberwolves. In exchange, the T-Wolves are sending Jarrett Culver and Juancho Hernangomez to the Home of the Blues.

Pat Bev hasn’t lived the best moments in recent hours. He’s headed to Minnesota now to team up with Karl-Anthony Towns, D’Angelo Russell, and Anthony Edwards. This could be a great addition to this young team.
Minnesota gets the toughness and leadership of Beverley for its young, developing roster. Gersson Rosas had Beverley on his team with Rockets and knows what he brings. Memphis continues to add talent along the margins, including Culver, who's only 22 and a former No. 6 pick.

The T-Wolves are going through a rebuilding process, and Beverley can be that leader for a group of young players hungry to win.
