Timberwolves must steer clear of deadline reunion with guard despite low asking price

Ahead of the February 5 trade deadline, the Minnesota Timberwolves seem to be eyeing a way to upgrade their point guard depth. They are also looking to do so in a cost-effective manner. On Thursday, Jake Fischer reported that the Orlando Magic are open to trading veteran guard Tyus Jones at a cheap cost.

"Sources say that the Magic have called several teams to explore the prospect of swapping reserve guard Tyus Jones for some second-round draft capital," Fischer wrote.

At the surface level, it's easy to say the Wolves should explore trading for Jones (who spent the first four years of his career in Minnesota) at such a cheap cost.
