Young talent, a new coach and an up-and-coming NBA superstar are just a few reasons why the Minnesota Timberwolves are a franchise to watch this season.
Farewell KG
The retirement of the great Kevin Garnett is bittersweet for any Twolves fan, but KG left this team of pups the knowledge and experience only a legendary wolf can pass down to his pack.
As a mentor, KG was beloved by his young teammates. His apprentices now have the opportunity to come together to make him proud.
It is not too late to pay your tribute to the Minnesota great. I love this throwback jersey from Pro Image (Level 2, North + Level 3, West).
Young talent
At just 20 years old, Karl-Anthony Towns (KAT) has the greatest potential to be the next leader of the pack. On Garnett’s retirement and the passing of the torch, he said, “I know what I must do. I’ll take it from here.” This KAT is a wolf a heart. Don’t miss your chance to rock #32 as the next NBA superstar emerges in Minnesota!
Other notable wolf pups sure to tear it up on the court this season include Andrew Wiggins, age 21, who led the team in points per game last season; Zach LaVine, age 21, who had the highest 3-point field goal percentage on the team; and of course 20-year-old Tyus Jones, the Minnesota native, who is ready to make his mark on the court. As the young pack grows, so must the fans. Pick up a jersey at Pro Image (Level 2, North + Level 3, West) and cheer these guys on!
A new coach, a new era
Fresh talent on the court joins a new face court side this season. The state of Minnesota is thrilled to welcome head coach, Tom Thibodeau, who boasts an impressive resume. We’re all excited to watch him mold an elite NBA team and to see them in action for years to come.
If the “coach look” is more your thing, then check out the apparel and hats at Lids (Level 1, East; Level 2, North; Level 3, East; + Level 3, West).
