1. Minnesota Timberwolves

The Minnesota Timberwolves are heading into a very interesting offseason, and they could be in the market for a new superstar. Irving would be a very nice fit in Minnesota, and if they can get him locked up long-term, he could end up being the face of the franchise for years to come. Kevin Love is likely on his way out of town, but the Wolves could put together a very nice package of players and picks to convince Cleveland to make a deal. Perhaps packaging Ricky Rubio and Nikola Pekovic along with a couple picks would be enough to convince the Cavs to make a deal.
