What’s your top moment in the 66 games the Minnesota Timberwolves have played thus far during the 2019-20 season?

The Minnesota Timberwolves have played just over 80 percent of their regular-season games so far during the 2019-20 campaign, and it’s appearing increasingly likely that the final number of games played doesn’t budge from that number.

If the season is over, what’s your favorite moment of the season?

ESPN’s Kevin Pelton shared his thoughts on the best moment of Minnesota’s season, and it’s one that likely would have topped the list of a number of Wolves fans.

It’s fair to acknowledge that the past nine months or so have been a veritable roller coaster, from a roster overhaul in the offseason to a hot start to the season, followed by a pair of double-digit losing streaks.

Then, the trades happened. First, the Jeff Teague trade in January. Then, a flurry of moves leading into the February trade deadline, including the landing of the vaunted second All-Star that president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas was after.

Alas, a fractured wrist for Karl-Anthony Towns meant that he and new acquisition D’Angelo Russell played exactly one game together. But the emergence of another new Timberwolf, Malik Beasley, gave fans hope that there just might be a new Big Three on the Wolves roster for 2020-21.

Along the way, the biggest highlights have to be the overtime win over the Brooklyn Nets on opening night, the win over Miami to bring the Wolves’ record to 3-0, and the Wolves’ first win in San Antonio in several years that improved the Wolves’ mark to 10-8.

It was pretty much all downhill from there, save for a couple of individual 40-point performances (one each for Towns and Andrew Wiggins) and a couple of truly unforgettable dunks.

If we’re talking top individual moments, the Jarrett Culver and Jordan McLaughlin dunks have to be in the top five, along with the Russell block and perhaps a couple of other individual game performances.
