How some ugly golf helped the struggling Timberwolves play some beautiful basketball

The social media feeds of the Timberwolves filled up with video after video Saturday night of players like Andrew Wiggins and Taj Gibson stepping up to a golf tee and taking some ... unorthodox golf swings. Sometimes they would miss the ball completely.

But the team outing at a Topgolf driving range in Oklahoma City was worth more than a few laughs to the Wolves. After their 114-112 win over the Thunder on Sunday night, multiple players said the previous night had been an important one for team bonding.

“You got to be able to communicate, talk about what we need to do better but just kick back,” Gibson said.
