The Timberwolves completed their trade with Philadelphia on Wednesday which allowed the Sixers to free up more money for Elton Brand, the Associated Press is reporting.

The Sixers sent swingman Rodney Carney, veteran center Calvin Booth, a protected first-round draft pick, and cash to Minnesota for a conditional second-round draft pick. The Timberwolves used a $2.8 million trade exception gained from a trade last December with Miami to make the finances match.
