The Ultimate Timberwolves Team
In this series, I assemble what I believe is the greatest team possible for each franchise. In this specific video, we’re looking at the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Seattle Supersonics.
5 starters, 5 backups, and 3 rotations players. A total of 13 roster spots on each Ultimate Team. It’s not just about talent, but it’s about building a team that works and gels together.

The game of Basketball has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I grew up as a kid watching my dad’s recorded VHS tapes of playoff games through the 70s and 80s, and collected all the Basketball cards. Something about the game and what it represents just hooked me from a very young age.
My love for the game only continues to grow as time goes on. I love studying and analyzing the game, with an unbiased perspective. Feel free to subscribe, follow me on social media, and celebrate this amazing game and it’s rich history with me!
I post videos every week on NBA history, predictions, hypothetical scenarios and current NBA topics.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Only 3 teams are left in the Ultimate Team Series, and they are The Blazers, Warriors and Wizards… BUT the Blazers are the only team left who will get their own individual video before the Ultimate Team compilation. The Warriors and Wizards will be the BRAND NEW content in the compilation, and as always, there will be timestamps in the pinned comment of that compilation video, so if you’re waiting for the Warriors or Wizards, make sure to tune in for the compilation when it drops!
Corrections: Forgot to include Ricky Rubio in the honorables. Also Jimmy Butler's stats display 22-23 on the screen, but that was just a mistake. As the audio indicates, those are actually his 17-18 numbers when he was with Minnesota.
How many games would the Ultimate Timberwolves win in the Ultimate regular season??
A solid squat, but ngl they have no chance against most other all time teams
You should do a joint production with @CliqueProductions and let him take all your "Ultimate Teams" and do one of his famous 2kgame simulation videos so we can see which "Ultimate Team" would come out as Champion. Hell! Y'all could do a whole 5 episode series! That would be dope.
theyre making the playoffs
My Top 5:
#1 Marbury
#2 Sprewell
#3 Edwards
#4 Garnett
#5 KAT
The team looks interesting but I have them being one of the weaker teams. For the most part it has a bunch of solid players that didn’t really accomplish much as a team. I think Jimmy would go crazy on some of these players.
Personally I would have put Sam in the starting line up. There is already good offensive players there and he helps make them more stable if less flashy. I also would have put Sprewell instead of Wally on the team. Wally was a good shooter but he was a bad defender, Sprewell will bring more defense and heart.
With the right coach and a mentality of having hungry veterans leading the way I can see them being a tough team.
Of course if they start to self destruct, Jimmy, Sprewell and KG would make for an entertaining story.
Marbury
Ant
Sprewell
KG
KAT
Spree instead of rider?
Ant, Buckets, Ticket and Gobert…🤯only His Airness to menace that paint on a regular…
Great video
Considering this team is a relatively young organisation (89-90), and they shot themselves in the foot with the the whole Joe Smith thing – they have had a bunch of nice players over the years, particularly at the power forward spot (arguably the second best; arguably the greatest 3pt shooter; arguably one of the greatest college players – then still have Love, Googs and others).
But as much as they have had nice players, the starting lineup put together here is mostly defence with no outside threats, that spacing is going to hurt.
I would swap Towns into the starting Center spot alongside Garnett (despite Butler issues) and have Gobert and Love running together on the second unit.
I would also consider swapping Cassell in for Marbury – in fact for chemistry reasons I might consider taking Marbury out completely for Mike Conley or Terrell Brandon.
Rudy and Kat swap spots.
Garnett and KAT work
Rudy and Love together works
Far more balanced imo
Good team, but my only issue is that Mike Conley is not even mentioned in honorable mentions.
So glad to see this Ultimate TimberWolves video….because it means the TrailBlazers are next!
I missed Sprewell here. Sure, he had a short stint for the Wolves, but he averaged 18ppg in 03-04 while playing stellar defense. Was part of that iconic trio with KG and Cassell, going all the way to the WCF before bowing out to the Lakers. I feel he'd atleast be a good rotation player.
Minnesota Timberwolves Kevin The Big Ticket Garrett finally gets some help, with Jimmy Butler, Anthony Edwards, Kevin Love and his outlet passes, Rudy Gobert on defense, KAT with scoring, Sam I'am, DLO with ice in his veins, Wally reliable, Al Jefferson a big body, Andrew Wiggins, Isaiah Rider for highlight reel dunks.
I didn't know Starbury started his career with the the Timberwolves and his street ball style. Good team could upset teams playoff chances.
This team is going to be really not as good as other Ultimate teams. Also, really unbalanced between the outside and inside players. Their 3 best players in their history play at PF/C.
If I got KG at PF Imma take KAT at C over Gobert
I would have selected Pekovic rather than Jefferson, just because this is the spot of someone who is not going to play at all, and Pekovic is useful just sitting here and being scary. Even more so now that he's retired and as hum hum "other" activities.
By the way, whenever American players or media members are going on a rant on "soft Europeans", I always picture Pekovic being in the same room at them and giggle a little.
I'd much rather have Rubio starting for his passing and defense. Marbury was just a flashy low IQ chucker. He does not belong in the starting lineup.
KAT and wiggins going to have a hard day in training with this squad
Cassell should be the starting pg
U can probably trade out Steph for Sam 😉
1 of the top 3 all around teams in this
Butler and Garnett will make grown men cry with their endless trash talkin😭
I think that I would move kg to the 5 and put love at the 4. It’s also wild that gobert is over kat. I feel that gobert would give the bench a good defensive identity
