The Wolves' bench let Mike Conley hear it after he settled for a layup.
With the regular season winding down and the Timberwolves fighting for the Western Conference's No. 1 seed instead of battling for a playoff spot like in years prior, the team took a moment Friday to poke fun at one of its veteran leaders.
During the second quarter of a matchup against the Atlanta Hawks at Target Center, the 36-year-old Conley found himself with a wide-open path to the basket after a turnover. Conley dribbled the ball three times and rolled in a clean layup for two points. The Timberwolves' bench, however, was not having it. Multiple players on the bench broke into big smiles and shook their heads in disappointment that Conley didn't go for the dunk. Minnesota center Karl-Anthony Towns, playing, Conley hasn't thrown down a dunk in a game since April 4, 2017 when he was 29 years old and still playing for the Memphis Grizzlies.
At halftime, the Timberwolves led the Hawks 56–47. They will wrap up the 2023–24 regular season Sunday with a matchup at home against the Phoenix Suns.The Auburn Tigers need to watch out for these two Yale stars 2024 NCAA Tournament: How to watch Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. McNeese State Cowboys, live stream, TV channel for first round matchup
