The Minnesota Timberwolves are believed to be considering using the No. 7 pick as part of a trade package to the Chicago Bulls for Jimmy Butler.

The Wolves and Bulls discussed a trade at last year's draft.

Butler has expressed a desire to remain with Chicago amid interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Tom Thibodeau coached Butler during his tenure with the Bulls.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski, the Wolves also have interest in trading for George. Wojnarowski reported shortly before the start of the draft that George talks were centered on Zach LaVine, Kris Dunn and picks.
