The Minnesota Timberwolves have been one of the most active teams early this offseason and that landed them a franchise-altering player. The Wolves were able to agree on a deal with the Chicago Bulls that landed them Jimmy Butler, one of the premier two-way wings in the NBA.
Butler recently held his introductory press conference with Minnesota and was more than open to accepting the criticism he has received over his stint in Chicago. So much so, that Butler decided to give out his phone number to the world.

Predictably, Butler’s phone was flooded with hundreds of messages from NBA fans across the world and some of them were pretty entertaining:
