A headline about a trade that didn't happen tells you nothing about Taylor's role. He's rostered everywhere, projected as a top-six back, and none of that changes because Minnesota window-shopped and bought elsewhere. Keep starting him against Dallas and ignore the noise.

Speculative — this reads ahead of what the source reported.
