The Minnesota Timberwolves have parted ways with valuable guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker, which prompted defensive stalwart Rudy Gobert to thank him.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker agreed to a four-year, $62 million deal with the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night, according to ESPN's Shams Charania — a significant pay bump for the Canadian swingman, who developed into a steady 3-and-D contributor during two seasons in Minnesota and now heads into his prime with an opportunity to continue that growth.
