Minnesota: Can They Hit Enough Three Pointers?

There wasn’t a team in the league that improved their roster more than the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Towns and Wiggins are back as the young core, but they aren’t joined by LaVine as they shipped him in a deal for All-Star Jimmy Butler. Then they went out and signed Jeff Teague and Jamal Crawford.

But in today’s NBA, hitting the outside shot is crucial to making deep playoff runs.

When comparing Teague, Wiggins, Butler and Towns’ three point percentages from last season, Towns led the way at .367%. In comparison, the Warriors had three players who shot over 37% from behind the arc and two players above 40.

They have the roster on paper, but can they hit enough threes to compete with the best?
