Despite missing Terrance Shannon Jr. to rest, the Minnesota Timberwolves were able to eek out a win in the final regular season game of the Las Vegas Summer League. This leaves them at 4-0 and in the hunt to return to the Summer League pseudo-playoffs. They have made the championship game twice, in 2016 and 2019. Could this year be the year they finally win the franchise’s first title?
Obviously, without Shannon Jr., even winning this game was a tall task from the get go. TSJ has been the Wolves best player in Summer League, leading fans in Minnesota and all over the internet to believe that a second year leap is around the corner.
