A Brief History
Founded in 1989, the Minnesota Timberwolves filled the void left by the Lakers who headed for Southern California in 1960. Now almost a quarter century later, the Timberwolves are still seeking that elusive first championship.
Debuting in the 1989-90 season, the Wolves were a massive hit in the Twin Cities, drawing an NBA record 1M+ fans as they played home games in the Metrodome (home of the Vikings) before moving to the Target Center the following year. Struggling through those early seasons, the Timberwolves struck gold in the 1995 NBA Draft with Kevin Garnett. The fiery, dominating big man put the Wolves on the map and led them to the playoffs eight consecutive years. In 2004, the Wolves made their deepest run, taking out the Denver Nuggets and then the Sacramento Kings before bowing to the Los Angeles Lakers in the Conference Finals.
Since that 2003-04 season, the Timberwolves have struggled to regain their form and haven’t earned a playoff bid in the last nine seasons. Dealing Kevin Garnett to the Boston Celtics in 2007, a full rebuild was initiated. While Garnett went on to win a title with the Celtics and now calls Brooklyn home, the Wolves are finally ready to return to contention.
Ball Night in the Twin Cities
Just steps from the gorgeous new Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins, the T-Wolves play their home games at Target Center (retail giant Target is headquartered in Minneapolis). Minnesota fans have waited a long time for their team to return to the playoff picture and if the core can stay healthy, this should be the year. In Ricky Rubio and Kevin Love, the T-Wolves have two of the top young players in the game. Surrounded by a mix of savvy veterans and some explosive young talent, the Wolves are on the rise.
