Suns 134, Wolves 124: Defensive Meltdown in the Desert
The Timberwolves kept pace with the league’s best team on the latter half of a road back to back, but defensive miscues proved to be too much to overcome. The Lede It was worse than Vegas said it would be with the eight-point spread heading into the Minnesota Timberwolves’ road bout with the NBA’s best team.

Dane Moore NBA Podcast: Wolves Lose DLo and Lose To Warriors
Photo by Noah Graham/NBAE via On today’s show, we react to the Minnesota Timberwolves losing D’Angelo Russell to injury and losing to the Golden State Warriors on National TV — in a game where Karl-Anthony Towns and Jarred Vanderbilt did their thing but the Wolves’ shooter did not. Topics for today’s show include: KAT opting to use finesse rather than force in the post against Golden State, and why the hope is that the memory of this game and how KAT found success sticks with him Losing DLo and losing the game because the 3-point shooting and 3-point defense...

Warriors 124, Wolves 115: All-Star Starter Steph Curry’s Night
Photo by Garrett Ellwood/NBAE via A game high 29 points by Stephen Curry too much for the dinged up Wolves to handle. Game Story It was shaping up to be the perfect storm for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Former Timberwolves disappointment, Andrew Wiggins, got the national nod as an all-star game starter over the likes of Defensive Players of the Year, Rudy Gobert and Draymond Green, as well as a pair of Wolves, Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns. The latter two had to wait just 2.5 hours before they could prove in a nationally televised game that they deserved the...

Midseason Review: Malik Beasley
Photo by David Berding/ Beasley hasn’t been able to get into a rhythm during the first half of the 2021-22 season. When the Minnesota Timberwolves re-signed Malik Beasley to a four-year, $60 million contact before the 2020-21 season, they expected him to continue what he does best: shoot the three well and play with energy on offense. He still plays hard, but he’s struggled with consistent shooting. Quick reminder before things get negative: Beasley scored 20 points in 15 minutes in his first game as a Wolf. Malik Beasley opens his @Timberwolves debut with 20...
