The 2023 NBA Finals will begin tomorrow night when the Nuggets take on the Heat in Game 1 in Denver. The Minnesota Timberwolves’ season may have ended more than a month ago, but there is still reason for Wolves fans to be tuning in.

Both playing for the Miami Heat, Jimmy Butler and Kevin Love are the only two players in the Finals to have suited up for Minnesota at any point in their NBA careers. Long time Timberwolves fans undoubtedly recall watching the two compete in the Twin Cities.
