Minnesota Timberwolves: Player matchups vs. the Rockets

The drought is finally over!

After a long 14 years of not making the playoffs, the Minnesota Timberwolves clinched a spot after a win-or-go-home game against the Denver Nuggets.

The fans were crazy — Target Center was electric, it had a playoff feel and there was physicality on the floor that’s very similar to how a playoff game would be played. For the most part, everyone played their role well and helped end the long drought that has been looming over Minnesota’s head.

Now, the Timberwolves will be heading to Houston to kick off the opening round playoff series.
