Joan Beringer has been impressing the Minnesota Timberwolves non-stop since they worked him out in a high school gym in a Chicago suburb days before the 2025 NBA Draft.
The Minnesota Timberwolves may have found a future star in the Las Vegas Summer League. Sure, much of the attention centered on the franchise’s reshaped roster and championship aspirations.
Ranking fantasy basketball backcourts comes down to four tests here. First, combined scoring, because two guards who both put up points protect your weakest column.
The Timberwolves completely transformed their roster with last month's LaMelo Ball trade. They went from having overwhelming size and athleticism but a spacing problem—with Rudy Gobert and Julius Randle sharing the frontcourt—to a team with one of the best backcourt pairings in the entire NBA.
Before LeBron James ultimately narrowed his high-stakes free agency decision down to four finalists, another surprising franchise was quietly in the running.
An athlete's peak tends to coincide with the youthfulness of their 20s. Sometimes, though, that apex happens when they've had more time to marinate in experience, and that's sometimes true in the NBA.
I distinctly remember the feeling after the Timberwolves lost to Denver in the first round of the 2023 playoffs. Minnesota had been eliminated in five games, which on paper looked like another early exit for a franchise that had collected early exits like refrigerator magnets.
Good grief, there were a lot of them. Giannis Antetokounmpo to Miami. Kawhi Leonard back to Toronto. LaMelo Ball joining Anthony Edwards in Minnesota. Trae Young and Anthony Davis landing in Washington at the deadline and finally ready to take on real roles.
Well, it was fun while it lasted, huh? So LeBron James isn’t a Timberwolf. That’s unfortunate. But life moves on! We checked the rules and the Minnesota Timberwolves will, in fact, still need to participate in the 2026-2027 NBA season without The King.
LeBron James has opted to join the Philadelphia 76ers this summer, but that decision did not come easily with so much to think about regarding his NBA future.
Two years ago, after the Minnesota Timberwolves dropped their fourth straight game in mid-November, Anthony Edwards called out his team for being soft and having a frontrunner’s mindset.
NBA offseason hype is undefeated. A player changes teams and suddenly he's averaging 27 points. A rookie has two good Summer League games and he's headed for stardom.
Typically, the path to the NBA for most players is to spend at least a season in college to get high-level basketball and important development under their belts.
There are players I like in fantasy basketball. Then there are players I like only if they're actually going to play. That's an important distinction this time of year.
The Minnesota Timberwolves lost the LeBron James sweepstakes after the four-time MVP chose to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers on a two-year, $8 million deal with a player option.
And just like that, it was over. One tweet from Shams Charania was all it took to end several weeks of speculation, amateur detective work, Timberwolves emoji analysis, and increasingly elaborate attempts to convince ourselves that LeBron James had always dreamed of spending the final chapter of his career in Minneapolis.
The LeBron James Sweepstakes are finally over. Much to the dismay of optimistic Timberwolves fans, the four-time NBA MVP is headed to the 76ers to team up with Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid, as first reported by NBA insider Shams Charania.
As the free agency rumor mill heats up, all eyes are on LeBron James’ next destination. While traditional powerhouse markets continue to maneuver for his services, the Minnesota Timberwolves are suitors.
Having Minnesota native and WWE star Tiffany Stratton link up with the Timberwolves makes a lot of sense, and fans went wild over the viral post. The Timberwolves posted a video of Stratton in the Target Center with the caption, “TIFF APPROVES.” She is promoting SummerSlam, which will take place at U.S.
We still don't know who the starting power forward for the Minnesota Timberwolves will be when the season opens in mid-October. So naturally, much of the oxygen surrounding the Wolves following the trade of both Julius Randle and Naz Reid has focused on the newly created vacancy in the starting lineup.
In the first game of Summer League, te Timberwolves couldn’t play No. 33 pick Isiaiah Evans due to the trade that landed him in Minnesota not being finalized.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are rearranging their roster in an attempt to get over the hump and become the top team in the Western Conference. Their trade for LaMelo Ball from the Charlotte Hornets sent Naz Reed to the Queen City while Julius Randle was sent to the Brooklyn Nets, opening up a vacancy in the frontcourt at the power forward position.
NBA Summer League is a chance for rookies to get their feet wet in the NBA, while veterans show off for roster spots and G League jobs. Sometimes, players stand out so much that they change their teams' plans for the upcoming season.
Timberwolves assistant Max Lefevre has taken a job overseas, having accepted the head coaching position for Paris Basketball, the French team announced today (via Twitter).
The Timberwolves used the second-round pick exception to sign rookie guard Isaiah Evans to a four-year, $9.3MM contract, reports Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (via Twitter).
