Lil Wayne Makes Shockingly Bold Statement About Minnesota Timberwolves
On Thursday evening, the Minnesota Timberwolves hosted the Denver Nuggets at the Target Center for Game 6 of their second-round playoff series.
With their season on the line, the Timberwolves showed up and won by a score of 115-70.
Game 7 will now be on Sunday in Denver.
After the big win, Lil Wayne (via FS1’s Undisputed) made a bold statement about the Timberwolves.

Paul Pierce then asked: “So you got them winning Game 7 in Denver?”

The Timberwolves were led by All-Star guard Anthony Edwards, who finished with 27 points, four rebounds, four assists and three steals while shooting 8/17 from the field and 4/9 from the three-point range in 34 minutes of playing time.
They also shot 46.5% from the field and 37.5% from the three-point range (as a team).
