"I would trade Julius Randle. I don't give a damn if it's for some fried catfish and a pot of gumbo!"
@KendrickPerkins calls for Julius Randle to leave the Timberwolves 🗣️
Tonight the @Twins' Byron Buxton:
- hit a leadoff HR
- had all of his team's hits
- drove in all of his team's runs
No other MLB player has done all of that in a victory (since RBI became official in 1920).
Victor Wembanyama when guarded by Rudy Gobert in Game 1:
8 points
4/10 shooting
0/4 from three
Gobert has allowed a combined 36/86 (41.9%) from the field in the playoffs against Jokic & Wemby
Fall Out Boy released Take This To Your Grave on this day in 2003. Big day for third wavers (and this account's namesake). Here's the band performing "Tell That Mick He Just Made My List of Things to Do Today," the opening track to the monumental album on Halloween of that year
April 30, 2014: Nino Niederreiter's Game 7 goal in Colorado gave the #mnwild their first playoff series win in 11 years.

Thursday night in the Twin Cities is going to be nuts.
Wild host Dallas for Game 6 in St. Paul with a chance to move on.
Wolves host Denver for Game 6 in Minneapolis with a chance to move on.
I’ve spoken to multiple Minneapolis cops about this. If teens get caught, they know nothing will happen to them. One quote summed it up best…
“Pat - they saw a classmate get arrested for stabbing someone and he didn’t even miss a day of school. You think they worry about getting caught doing this?”
Ayo Dosunmu of the @Timberwolves is the first player in NBA history with:
40+ points
75% FG shooting
5+ threes without a miss
10+ FT without a miss
...in any game (regular season or playoffs, off the bench or not).
After surrendering the biggest overtime lead in NBA play-by-play era history Christmas night to these same Nuggets, Minnesota just had their second biggest comeback playoff win since 1998 (19 points).
The only one better? Game 7 against Denver in 2024.
This rivalry rules.
