The latest NBA Trade Rumors have Corey Brewer of the Minnesota Timberwolves being shopped — what are the best fits for him?

Corey Brewer of the Minnesota Timberwolves has found himself buried on the depth chart and is now being shopped, according to Marc Stein of ESPN.com. The veteran wing has drawn interest from both the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Houston Rockets, but there are some other good fits as well.

The 28-year-old small forward from Portland, Tennessee has been an offensive disappointment since being drafted seventh overall out of the University of Florida back in the 2007 NBA Draft. He’s stayed in the league because of his defensive capabilities, and it’s why teams are looking to acquire him.

At 6-foot-9 and 185 pounds, Brewer is quick enough to defend shooting guards and his length creates serious problems for both guards and small forwards. The nine-year veteran would provide his new team the ability to better guard the perimeter and raise havoc in the passing lanes.

Which teams could use him the most?

Note: The final three teams are pure speculation on my part.

Next: Houston Rockets
