How Good Are The Timberwolves Big Three/Comparison
How good are the Minnesota Timberwolves big, young three?
The Minnesota Timberwolves’ future is bright.
Not only does Minnesota have Tom Thibodeau as their head coach, they have three players who averaged over 15 points per game last season in Andrew Wiggins, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Zach LaVine. Those players are all 22 years old or younger.
With the exception of LaVine, Wiggins and Towns will have a whole summer to continue to develop their games in the gym. This development is huge is it allows players to expand their horizons and improve different aspects.

Given the potential of the Big Three, Minnesota has a future that teams only dream of.
Yes, Minnesota hasn’t had a winning season since 2004-05, but they have constantly improved their record since having their young three.
Minnesota went from 16-66 in 2014-15, to 29-53 in 2015-16 and this year ended 31-51. That’s a 13-win improvement with the Big Three the first year and a two-win improvement this year.
No, two games isn’t a huge jump but it’s what to expect with a new coach. So, just how good are The Minnesota big three?
