Chris Haynes of CSNNW.com reports that the Minnesota Timberwolves are interested in Portland Trail Blazers guard Jamal Crawford despite the loss of Ricky Rubio to a season-ending knee injury. ------------------------------------ I'm also being told that the Minnesota Timberwolves are actively pursuing Crawford even harder now that their point guard Ricky Rubio is out for the season with a torn ACL. ... The problem with that is, other than Luke Ridnour, the Trail Blazers aren't all that interested in attaining anyone else plausible on that roster. So with that being said, don't be surprised if the Trail Blazers are involved in a 3-team trade involving Minnesota to finally land Crawford. ------------------------------------ -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
