The Timberwolves acquired Alexander-Walker from the Jazz on Wednesday in a three-team trade that also involves the Lakers, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Along with Alexander-Walker, the Timberwolves received Mike Conley and second-round picks in 2024, 2025 and 2026, while Utah takes back Russell Westbrook, Damian Jones, Juan Toscano-Anderson and a 2027 first-round draft pick. The Lakers, meanwhile, will add D'Angelo Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt and Malik Beasley. Alexander-Walker will provide some depth in the backcourt in Minnesota, but he may have a tough time earning reserve minutes behind Conley -- who replaces Russell as the Wolves' starting point guard -- and Anthony Edwards. The 24-year-old will primarily be competing with Jaylen Nowell, Austin Rivers and Jordan McLaughlin for playing time with the second unit.
