You hit 20 games in an NBA season and you lose the right to say “it’s early.” The quarter mark is the unofficial line of demarcation. That’s exactly where we stand with the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are 12–8 after 20 games, sitting on a record that looks decent on paper and weird as hell once […]
Coming into this weekend, it felt like the Minnesota Timberwolves were in a precarious spot. They had lost their previous three games, two of which in disastrous fashion, were sitting in seventh place in the Western Conference standings, and still hadn’t defeated a team with a winning record with two straight nights against winning teams […]

It has been a roller coaster past week for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

I’m not typically one to celebrate “Thanksgiving” in the traditional sense. Don’t get me wrong. I’m more than happy to enjoy time off from work and be around loved ones. However, I prefer to acknowledge the “checkered history” (generously speaking) and real origins of Thanksgiving. It’s a part of America’s very real history. That said, […]

Game Story Former Canis Hoopus contributors Cooper Carlson and Jake Paynting said on their most recent podcast episode of “World Wide Wolves” that the Minnesota Timberwolves loss to the Phoenix Suns on Friday was one of the worst regular season losses of all-time.

The Minnesota Lynx, who had the best record in the WNBA last season, will be adding another young talent to the roster with a top pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft.

With 55 seconds left in Friday night’s game against the Phoenix Suns, everything was looking great for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Personally speaking, I absolutely love the NBA Cup. Its sponsors may morally repel me, and it is the exact type of sideshow that the ABA would’ve thought of to avoid the cold grip of bankruptcy. It is really and truly the closest equivalent we have to fighting bears at halftime. It is precisely because it […]

All indicators pointed towards Wednesday night being smooth sailing. The Washington Wizards came in with a lowly 1-12 record, and it was shaping up to be 1-13 at halftime with the Minnesota Timberwolves up by 25. Pack it up and head home, it’s a school night, right? Not so fast! In case you got in […]

With 6:50 left in the fourth quarter, a rousing applause came from Target Center, the loudest it had been all night. A rarity that early in the game nowadays, it was Joe Ingles time.
