“But in the end, it all paid up. Jimmy ain’t got no championship. Karl bypassed him.” - Karl Sr. I know a lot Wolves fans and defenders of KAT felt the same way. Watching him win the title was vindication for that time A must-read for all Timberwolves fans from Jon ⤵️

For the second straight season, after dominating the regular season, the Lynx have flamed out in the Playoffs in epic fashion. Last year's collapse happened during the series with Phoenix. This year, it took place over the final month where the Lynx never looked like themselves

I get the Liberty are a bad matchup for the Lynx, but that felt like it was about way more than just that Lynx starting 5 was dominant during the regular season and got crushed We’ll see how they respond with their season on the line, that’ll say a lot about who they are or aren’t

$20 per month is a reasonable price to me and is in line with what is costs to watch the Twins or Wild In general, it stinks for fans that they have to pay for yet another streaming service, but that's more about the industry at large than the Wolves or DAZN Via Dane Moore ⤵️

I asked Tim Connelly about the process that led to signing Jonathan Kuminga “We thought he would be a perfect fit, not just his age and athleticism but his two-way ability and how much winning he’s seen” “We got lucky Jonathan chose us and we’re excited to see what this team looks like in a month”

Pablo’s reporting was incredibly thorough, so much so that he got a Pulitzer for it. This was always the proper punishment, just surprised they actually did it Feel bad for Clipper fans though, this is pretty devastating even if they appeal down to 3 firsts like the Wolves did 20 years ago

After trading Josh Green + waiving and stretching John Konchar, the Timberwolves are $4.5 million below the second apron with an open roster spot for a vet minimum The Wolves could open up a second vet min spot if they were to waive Trey Lyles before his guarantee date (1/10/27)

The Timberwolves signing Jonathan Kuminga pushes them over the second apron, which they are not allowed to surpass, meaning another move is coming. For Wolves OnSi I broke down why Josh Green is the most likely casualty and what the Wolves options are with his contract ⤵️ www.si.com/nba/timberwo...

Here's how the Wolves salary cap would look like if they waived and stretched Josh Green I'm not a big fan of putting $4.9 million of dead money on the books, but that's likely the cost for Kuminga Wolves would have two open roster spots they could use on vet minimum contracts

171

Ryan Eichten @reichten.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Wolves are about $2.1 million over the second apron, which they are, by CBA rule, not allowed to surpass They will either need to make a cost-cutting trade or waive and stretch Josh Green, which would put ~$5 million of dead cap money on their books this season and the next two

881

Ryan Eichten @reichten.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Wolves will need to make a trade to fit this deal under the second apron (which they are hard capped at). Terrence Shannon Jr. or Josh Green are possibly the players going out, but that's just speculation

I understand skepticism from Wolves fans and ownership changing hands again isn’t ideal but I think everything will be fine and maybe even better With Stad previously a minority owner this amounts to a restructuring more than an outright sale, which I think will keep changes at a minimum

The Lynx are 30-7. They’ve won 15 of their last 16 and just beat the two teams directly below them in the standings on the road They need to win just 4 of their final 7 games to clinch the #1 seed An absolutely dominant regular season

Clippers have 17 players on their roster (assuming the Kawhi trade goes through). They'll need to reduce that down to 15 at some point Timberwolves could try to interest them with a 2 for 1 trade where the Wolves send Josh Green for two of their smaller contract
