Welcome to the Timberwolves Exhibition Hall
The Timberwolves won more games in their first season (22) than any of the other late 1980s expansion teams, and with a group of young players led by Christian Laettner, the team is on the rise. The Timberwolves have a hard act to follow, however; the last NBA team in Minnesota, the Lakers, won five NBA Championships before moving to L.A. in 1960. DID YOU KNOW? Only two players - Brad Sellers and Doug West - are left from the Timberwolves' inaugural season. Sidney Lowe, who took over as coach of the Timberwolves midway through 1992-93, was a starting guard in the franchise's first game and recorded the first assist in Timberwolves history. SCORECARD. On April 17, 1990, the third-largest crowd in NBA history packed the Metrodome, giving the Timberwolves an attendance total of 1,072,572, the highest single-season total ever.
