Are the Timberwolves better with LaMelo Ball?

from Bleck & Abdalla · host Westwood One Sports

We open with a massive NBA trade as Lamelo Ball is on his way to the Minnesota Timberwolves. With the Charlotte Hornets receiving Naz Reid and a ton of draft capital.  How will Ball and Anthony Edwards complement each other? Are they enough to pass the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder? The Boston Celtics are actively trying to trade Jalen Brown. What is the best landing spot for the star? We head to Nashville for today's 32 Questions and 32 Days, asking if Titans quarterback Cam Ward can take a big jump under new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. Will the San Francisco 49ers wind up trading backup quarterback Mac Jones? Speaking of the 49ers, are they thinking of moving their practice facility to get away from the electrical substation? Staying on the 49ers, disgruntled receiver Brandon Aiyuk continues his bizarre behavior to get moved to the Washington Commanders. Will Ball and Edwards increase their scoring now that they’re teammates? Will Jones start as many games as he did last season? Will Brown’s scoring go up or down on his new team? The Baltimore Ravens are reportedly looking to give a new deal to receiver Zay Flowers, how will he fit into Declan Doyle's offense? The Memphis Grizzlies are reportedly looking to trade Ja Morant, will he play a full season with his potential new team? Kawhi Leonard's future appears in flux, will he return to the Los Angeles Clippers after a career year? If Aiyuk lands in Washington, can he exceed the production of his former teammate Deebo Samuel? Will the USMNT finish group play undefeated? The NFL Top 100 has kicked off and includes Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young. Could Major League Baseball be moving towards an NBA-system of max contracts? Are the guys interested in Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce’s wedding?
