Pack your back, Timberwolves fans! Looks like the Minnesota Timberwolves are taking a road trip. That’s right, and you will never guess the destination. It’s Abu Dhabi, where the Timberwolves will square off against the Dallas Mavericks for two early preseason games.
If you had to point to Abu Dhabi on a map, could you do it? Would you even be on the right continent? Well, buckle up, Minnesota Timberwolves fans, because the Timberwolves have two NBA preseason contests slated to be held at Etihad Arena on Yas Island against the Dallas Mavericks. This is a multi-year collaboration between the NBA and DCT Abu Dhabi that last year saw the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks play in the Arabian Gulf.
