    Sure there is, a bunch of rumors are coming out that Wiggins is on the table, but the Cavs and everyone else is downplaying it saying that Wiggins isn't involved in ANY trade talks for Love right now as of today, but your #1 pick sits tonight when expected to play to get as much experience as he can.

    Sitting out or not, Wiggins is getting traded.

    I don't follow. So, it is common for highly touted rookies to sit in the last SL game unless they are involved in Internet rumors, in which case their sitting means something differently?

    Don't follow me. It's a dark place. You want none of what I have.

    P.S. - Delete my thread I made last night please. About the actual trade happening.

    Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 12m
    With permission of Wolves and NBA, Dan Gilbert and Kevin Love met in Las Vegas during July summer league, sources tell Yahoo Sports.
    I've believed this for the past month. The trade was nearly done during Summer League and even though a lot of teams shut down players towards the end of Summer League. I think in the Cavs case it was because Love coming to Cleveland was imminent.

    Nope.

    The Lakers got overturned for a completely different reason. It's a completely different situation, not sure why people keep bringing it up.

    It has been blatantly obvious for the past month that the deal was done. In fact, we've known that Wiggins and Bennett were going to be gone for about a month, too. Not sure why you chose now to bump this thread.

    That final SL game was not an indicator. The final SL games always suck because the best prospects usually don't play in it.
