Free agency season is crazy every year and it’s getting crazier. The new spike in salary has seen Stephen Curry sign the biggest contract extension in NBA history at $201 million, as he should. After his contributions, and sacrifice, the Warriors owed him that.
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves have finally had enough of missing the playoffs. When they last made the playoffs, they lost in the Conference Finals to the Lakers, led by Shaq and Kobe. So, they traded for Jimmy Butler, and then signed Taj Gibson.
Gibson finished his season with the Thunder, but that’s a team remodeling their roster. As a result, Taj Gibson has re-signed with his old coach, on a new team, the Timberwolves. In the wake of this, the Wolves are trending on Twitter as the Minnesota Bulls.
