The complete story
The Timberwolves joined the NBA as an expansion team in 1989, alongside the Orlando Magic, and spent their early years as one of the league's perennial losers before Kevin Garnett arrived in 1995 and led them to eight straight playoff appearances, including a 2004 Western Conference Finals run that remains the deepest in franchise history. The team battled relocation rumors and ownership turmoil for years under Glen Taylor before Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore completed a roughly $1.5 billion purchase in 2025-26. Anthony Edwards emerged as a superstar and led Minnesota to the 2025 Western Conference Finals, where they lost to Oklahoma City. In a blockbuster July 2026 trade, the franchise overhauled its roster, sending out longtime starters Julius Randle and Naz Reid to acquire All-Star guard LaMelo Ball from Charlotte. The Wolves play home games at Target Center in downtown Minneapolis and share a building and ownership group with the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx.
