I also think the Wolves are winners in this deal, but I´m also sure Ainge doesn´t see it that way. I´m 99% sure he could have gotten more than the protected 1st, BUT what he did with this trade was to make sure the Jazz will be overtaken by the Lakers, so he increased the draft value of the most important pick the Jazz have: their own. And likely Ainge also thinks there is a chance it makes the T-Wolves worse, whose pick they own this year.
