So just like that, the Timberwolves (along with the Minnesota Wild and Minnesota Twins), will begin to have fans back in the building this spring, which is a positive sign as our country continues to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic. While the Twins were allotted a maximum of 10,000 fans (due to their stadium being open air), both the Wolves and Wild will host a maximum of 3,000 fans under Minnesota’s latest guidelines.
Have a great and safe weekend, everyone!
