Amidst all the pandemonium currently going on during the NBA free agency period, it’s easy to forget about the team with arguably the most exciting young core in the entire league: the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine are here to make damn sure that doesn’t happen.
Just a week after drafting the velociraptor that goes by the name of Karl-Anthony Towns first overall in the 2015 NBA Draft, the Timberwolves got another big reminder Friday of just how bright the future is.
The Bounce Brothers took over a local gym with their high-flying ways:

It’s like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory but with dunks instead of candy.
After getting with more than our weekly dose of 360s, windmills, and reverse jams, the question is now raised: Will LaVine, who stole the show at last year’s dunk contest with a performance for the ages, be joined in this year’s competition by fellow gravity-defier Wiggins (who gets extra style points for the Mikki Moore-inspired hairdo)? We can only hope so, while fans of the NBA’s League Pass darlings continue to salivate over what the future holds for them.
