The Minnesota Timberwolves roster is not just loaded with All-Star players. This is a roster ripe with young stars. And now, it seems, the Timberwolves roster boasts an insane number of skyscrapers.
In the NBA, there is a distinct advantage for taller players in many regards. As long as tall players can maintain the handle on the basketball, tall players can pass and shoot with fewer challenges in their line of sight than their shorter counterparts. And with a back-to-the-basket, tall players have a far greater chance of scoring, rebounding, and blocking shots.
So bigger is better, in many ways.
