Tom Thibodeau’s job just keeps becoming more difficult. His young and inexperienced Minnesota Timberwolves grinder into the Western Conference’s eighth and final playoff seed last season.
However, after Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns had a rather poor playoff performance before losing to the Houston Rockets in five games, it was rumored that he was upset with the front office in Minnesota.
This came just two months after Andrew Wiggins’ camp leaked that he was unhappy as the third option behind both All-Star forwards, Towns and Jimmy Butler.
