Minnesota has agreed to a deal to send Jimmy Butler and Justin Patton to Philadelphia in exchange for Robert Covington, Dario Saric, and a second-round pick. (Adrian Wojnarowski on Twitter)

It was only a matter of time before Butler was moved, given all the acrimony between him and Minnesota this season. Word is that the Sixers expect to sign Butler to a long-term deal this summer, so expect the 76ers to be a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference for a long time.
