The Timberwolves are on a two-game winning streak. Were the season to end right now, they would be the 11th seed in the West. You know, that sentence started out great, but by the time I got to the “11th seed in the West” part, I feel like it kind of lost its luster. So, let’s ch...26520Sat, 20 Nov 2021 07:00:15 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/are-the-timberwolves-kat-or-ants-team-r26518/The Minnesota Timberwolves have been in a constant state of transition ever since the Los Angeles Lakers eliminated them in Game 6 of the 2004 Western Conference Finals. Seventeen-plus years later, the steadiest thing about the franchise is that everything is still in flux.

Minnesota’s core pieces, Anthony Edwards, Karl-Anthony Towns, and D’Angelo Russell, are all offensive players. Therefore, you would assume the Wolves would have a competent offense. That hasn’t been the case, thou...26517Thu, 18 Nov 2021 10:30:42 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/trading-kat-doesnt-solve-the-wolves-problems-r26516/A 3-1 start to the season for the Minnesota Timberwolves has quickly morphed into a free fall. They have lost eight of their last nine games, and many are searching for answers now that they’re 4-9. Another disappointing season looks like it’s on the horizon. There is a contingency of Wolves fans...26516Wed, 17 Nov 2021 10:30:19 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/its-time-to-move-on-from-kat-r26513/This Minnesota Timberwolves season has already gone entirely off the rails. Never mind the notion that all of the team’s young talent will “take some time to gel,” the cold truth is that this team does not appear to have what it takes to win at a high level. The sloppy performances and inconsisten...26513Tue, 16 Nov 2021 13:30:07 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/lets-parse-through-the-wolves-six-game-losing-streak-r26510/The Minnesota Timberwolves have now lost six games in a row.

Instead, no one else showed up. KAT got punked by Andrew Wiggins twice, and the Wolves lost their sixt...26509Fri, 12 Nov 2021 10:30:44 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/karl-anthony-towns-shouldnt-be-posting-up-r26507/On Monday night, the Minnesota Timberwolves, a team desperate to snap their then-four-game losing streak, blew yet another double-digit lead. This time, it was an overtime thriller against the Memphis Grizzlies. It was similar to their first eight contests: Jaden McDaniels fouling out of the game...26507Wed, 10 Nov 2021 14:00:38 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/why-werent-the-wolves-able-to-rally-around-kats-buzzer-beater-in-memphis-r26505/There are moments in a season that can inject life into a team desperately searching for just that. The Minnesota Timberwolves needed a win, having lost four in a row entering Monday’s matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Instead, they had an opportunity to have one of those tide-shifting moments w...26505Wed, 10 Nov 2021 10:30:07 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/jordan-mclaughlin-is-only-as-good-as-the-options-ahead-of-him-r26504/It is a tradition like no other to revel in the losses of Minnesota Timberwolves basketball. Just like in years past, there is plenty of blame to go around for this Timberwolves team. The offense is floundering because Karl-Anthony Towns isn’t taking enough shots. Malik Beasley has been a shell of...26504Mon, 08 Nov 2021 10:30:24 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/anthony-edwards-cant-be-minnesotas-only-player-who-attacks-the-rim-r26503/After a 3-1 start, the Minnesota Timberwolves have lost four-straight games. The jubilation that many fans felt to start the season was swiftly replaced with a familiar emptiness. But worry not, folks! The season is young. Even if the Wolves are 3-5, there is plenty to cling to. Malik Beasley has...26503Tue, 09 Nov 2021 10:30:58 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/the-floor-might-be-falling-out-beneath-minnesotas-defense-r26502/On Wednesday, the Minnesota Timberwolves suffered a tough loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. During the first half, it felt like the Wolves could win the game.

They look like they’re on a mission to miss 100 percent of the shots they do take through seven games. The Timberwolves couldn’t hit water if the...26501Fri, 05 Nov 2021 10:30:19 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/dont-jump-to-conclusions-on-the-wolves-yet-r26499/Some things never seem to change. We are only a handful of games into the season, and it is hard to gauge how good the Minnesota Timberwolves truly are.

Over the two-game stretch, Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas ate a 40-course meal off the glass. By that, I mean he had 40 rebounds.

It’s something the Minnesota Timberwolves have needed to improve upon for years. Minnesota’s best players are offensive-minded players, while their role players are defensive-minded.

I quit buying so many shoes online. I quit eating animal products. I even quit smoking cigarettes. But one habit that has stuck with me since I was a kid, one I can’t seem to kick.

I am an incredibly anxious person, which m...26488Tue, 26 Oct 2021 10:30:28 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-features/is-this-new-wolves-defense-sustainable-r26487/It wasn’t pretty, nor was it easy, but the Minnesota Timberwolves came through when it counted and grinded out a win against the New Orleans Pelicans. It was a sloppy game of basketball on both ends, with the teams combining to shoot at a sub-40% clip and committing a total of 47 turnovers. A late...26487Mon, 25 Oct 2021 10:30:17 +0000
