Young Wolves Get The Vets They Need In Davis, Rubio
The importance of experience in the NBA can’t be overstated.
Ed Davis and Ricky Rubio, two of the newest members of the Minnesota Timberwolves, bring the experience of 19 NBA seasons and 1,231 regular-season games between them to their new squad. For reference, the eight other players not named Karl-Anthony Towns or D’Angelo Russell on the Wolves’ current roster have combined to play a total of 861 games of NBA experience.
With one of the youngest rosters in the NBA and an average age of just over 23 years old, Davis and Rubio’s veteran leadership will be imperative in developing a Timberwolves side hungry to compete in the Western Conference.
