candace.jpgThe big news: Pending NBA approval, Rashad McCants’ tenure in Minnesota is over. The bigger news: the Wolves are breaking all links to the Kardashian family in the process — while bringing the talented and classy Candace Parker into the fold in the process. No, Shaddy wasn’t swapped for the WNBA star. He and Calvin Booth were shipped to Sacramento in exchange for former Duke standout Shelden Williams (who is married to Parker) and backup point guard Bobby Brown (not the one who sang “Humpin’ Around” and was married to Whitney Houston). Williams and Parker were married in 2008 and are expecting their first child in the spring. To recap: McCants and Kardashian out. Williams and Parker in. Overall: Yes. Sure, we know Shaddy and Khloe fizzled out a few weeks ago, but if ever that power couple was to get back together the time is now. Sacramento and L.A. are less than 400 miles from each other. Make it work, you crazy kids!

(Basketball perspective: McCants and Booth were hardly playing; Williams is at least another big body, while Brown is at least another point guard option).
