It took 81 games, but alas, my thesis for the 2023-24 Minnesota Timberwolves is confirmed: this is a sequel team.

The Timberwolves finish the regular season with their second-best record (56-26) in franchise history, and even though I was just a young pup watching the ‘03-04 season, this season is easily the most fun I’ve ever had watching a basketball team. From beatdowns in Abu Dhabi to Naz Reid towels at WrestleMania; from beating the then-undefeated Boston Celtics and Denver Nuggets at home to 41 straight sellouts; from Anthony Edwards’ dunks to game-saving blocks — this season has reignited a burning passion for NBA basketball in the state of Minnesota.
