“Belt To A**”: WNBA Superstar & NBA Legends In Shock As Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray Gasp For Relief

The Minnesota Timberwolves bought a defensive clinic at Ball Arena tonight. Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns took care of the offensive end of the floor. However, the T-Wolves started the game without Rudy Gobert since he welcomed a child into the world with his girlfriend, Julia Bonilla, earlier today. With their star missing, things were deemed to get easier for Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray to put on a promising game, exploiting Gobert’s void. However, the Minnesota crew stepped into the game like a pack of Wolves chasing a kill, completely dominating the defending champs with their schemes.

The Wolves had the defending champs resort to unexpected screams of help, all while putting up various antics within the first half itself. However, Chris Finch’s squad remained poised in their goal, all while defending Jamal Murray and the championship holders with a smile on their faces.

As the Denver Nugget’s arena saw a pin-drop silence during the Wolves’ 26-point separation in the second quarter, various names across the league tipped their hat to the young guns for their relentlessness. WNBA’s Los Angeles Sparks star, Lexie Brown hinted at the iconic Kendrick Perkins’ gesture, stating “Omg Timberwolves. BELT TO ASS.,” to highlight Wolves’ dominance.

With that, Kendrick Perkins himself went to X to give his reactions to the game. Even before the halftime, Perkins highlighted the Wolves’ dismantling of the defending champs. He even hinted that the Nuggets lack the mettle and caliber to fight the Wolves.

Even when there was no evident shift in the momentum of the game, Nuggets saw Jamal Murray throwing a heat pad on the floor, in the middle of live action. Moreover, their head coach Mike Malone ignited a a fiery instance, walking up the floor and shouting in a referee’s face.

Charles Barkley thinks the Wolves are the best defensive team EVER

The T-Wolves mounted a 26-point lead at the half, and won the game by same difference, 106-80. Their defense did the dirty work early, leaving them with ample breathing room to make mistakes in the second half.

With that, Charles Barkley claimed, “We saw one of the best defensive teams I’ve ever seen, the stats don’t lie,” on national television. Even when probed about the depth of his comments, Barkley backed up his statements by citing that apart from Mike Conley, the Wolves don’t harbor a small player.

Wolves played without Gobert, their best defensive player. Moreover, they also saw Jaden McDaniels leave the floor prematurely. Nevertheless, Anthony Edwards led the way, and the remaining roster bought in their athleticism, drive, and hunger to put Denver in the most concerning position they’ve been in recent times; 2 back-to-back losses at home to open a playoff series.
