\"\"(ESPN<\/a>)\u00a0 The Memphis Grizzlies<\/a> are trading guard Patrick Beverley<\/a> to the Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a> for guard Jarrett Culver<\/a> and forward Juancho Hernangomez<\/a>, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.<\/p>\n

With the trade, Minnesota gets the toughness and leadership of Beverley for its young, developing roster. Timberwolves president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas is familiar with Beverley after their time together with the Houston Rockets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Memphis, meanwhile, continues to add talent along the margins. Culver, 22, was the sixth overall pick in the 2019 draft and averaged 5.3 points and 3.1 rebounds in 34 games last season. Hernangomez, 25, averaged 7.2 points and 3.9 rebounds in 52 games last season.<\/p>\n
