The Minnesota Timberwolves are a relatively young franchise by NBA standards. In fact, they are the third youngest franchise behind Charlotte and Toronto.
Created in 1989, the Wolves started out as a lowly expansion franchise, not making their first playoff appearance until the 1996-97 campaign. When you think of great Wolves players the obvious names come to mind: Kevin Garnett, Wally Szczerbiak, and even Kevin Love…but what about the others?
