The Minnesota Timberwolves benefit greatly from the NBA’s decision to begin the 2020-21 season on Dec. 22.
The Minnesota Timberwolves haven’t played an NBA game since a 117-111 loss to the Houston Rockets on March 11. More than eight months later, the team finally has an idea of when it will take the court once again.
Earlier this week, the NBA announced that the 2020-21 season will officially begin on Dec. 22.
That date is certainly much earlier than most would have thought, with many people assuming the season would start sometime between mid-January and March 2021.
