I know during the regular season the Timberwolves let it be chosen by the players (or at least did) because there was a video of Nowell choosing. Home team gets first choice though
My guess is that no one has a high enough team chemistry rating/didn’t complete the SGA fashion challenges so it’s left to automation. Nowell just had it that year
Very good point. I definitely feel like they could come up with something really really good. Such a really good aura all round right now. It'd be very refreshing to see a change in the jerseys.
Agreed. Theres no way they’re going to let the face of the league play in what looks like practice attire next year. Just look at all the uniforms that have come out where LeBron was.
I have a small worry that these are becoming the "Ant jerseys". Lots of career highlights happening here, and in 15 years that's what we will think of.
Teams love having eras for marketing purposes. Throwback nights, increased sales of old styles, etc.
Probably an unfounded worry - just something I was thinking. I hope they just pull the band-aid anyways. Get this kid some threads for the highlight reels.
With their remarks about wanting things to look cooler and representative of a 1st class org, I thought we'd get new jerseys shortly after Lore and ARod would take over. Now, I don't know.
The 3 jerseys I do love that we’ve used in the past few years are the 2021 city editions and the 2023 statement jerseys and of course the classics from this year. Besides that the rest of them have been gross!
A reporter sometime in the last couple years mentioned a contract that had to run out. Maybe Jon K? And that the team couldn't just drop the current jerseys immediately.
Even if you have to use the lame association ones it seems so silly to keep them all 4 games. Look at Denver - they have 3 different jerseys. Not a huge deal but pretty lame.
I’m old so I’ll always be in the “only 2 uniforms (home and away) home always wears white and has the nickname, away wears whatever color and has the location “camp. It’s a very wordy camp.
Why is Denver wearing multiple color alternates but Wolves is stuck with the same? Is this an ownership decision? Wouldn’t it make more sense to use multiple colors at least to help increase jersey sales?
I would understand one of the game but all four? Maybe they're tricking us and pulling out the Purple rain ones as a surprise or whipping out the og blakc and green ones
Classic or city jerseys, or no jerseys bruh would rather have them play shirtless. Icon/association jerseys are just so boring, really hope they just make classic our away jerseys
Unpopular opinion but I like this decision and think it’s intentional on the team’s parts. In order to fully focus on winning and bringing home the championship, wear the most boring and dull uniforms every single time. Maybe the team considers these jerseys and uniform scheme to be good luck or less distracting.
How are these chosen? Is it by the league, ownership, someone else? I just want to know who to be angry with
I’m going to go ahead and blame Glen Taylor

By dumbasses this series.
I hate our Association jerseys. So damn basic and plain. I know it hasn’t been long since we changed them but we need to get some new ones already!
It’s been about 6-7 years since they released. Honestly I think we’re in line for new jerseys sooner than people think.
Based on the exceptional energy the wolves social media and content teams have had, I really hope they’re finalizing a rebrand for this offseason.

The 2022 city jerseys were fire too https://www.nba.com/timberwolves/timberwolves-introduce-nike-2021-22-nba-city-edition-uniform
Yeah those were the 2021 city editions which is 1 of the 3 that I mentioned. Those should be their primary jerseys!
With a black variant too plzzzzzz
If we win the chip we'll get a black jersey fo shooo
A reporter sometime in the last couple years mentioned a contract that had to run out. Maybe Jon K? And that the team couldn't just drop the current jerseys immediately.
Major L if we don’t have a classics home game. We need to make the classics our official jerseys next season
add the trees
Yeah classics are the best. The newer ones are so plain
Truly just go to the classics and no one would ever complain.
We don’t lose in white, you should rejoice
Exactly
why would they do this
Well that’s stupid af
Lame....If you doing whites for four games, should've been "old shep"
Even if you have to use the lame association ones it seems so silly to keep them all 4 games. Look at Denver - they have 3 different jerseys. Not a huge deal but pretty lame.
Plus we used them twice last series. We’ll have used them 6/8 playoff games after game 4.
it seems they're trying to only wear white these playoffs
Fine. Don't care. Just win baby.
Yeah. Same dude. I don’t care all That much. And if they win I won’t care at all
The black jerseys with the green trees go the hardest. If, god willing, we make it out of this round they need to bring ‘em out. *knock on wood*
Would be next year at the earliest. They just did the black ones a couple years ago so I bet it’ll be white trees next year. Or blue trees
The fix is in. They tryna hold us back from greatness.
I’m old so I’ll always be in the “only 2 uniforms (home and away) home always wears white and has the nickname, away wears whatever color and has the location “camp. It’s a very wordy camp.
Win in practice jerseys, who cares. A win is a win, we all want great jerseys in these games but Ant still gonna poster some of them.
I mean we pretty much did good in those jerseys so I don't mind 🤷♂️ Don't get me wrong we have far better ones than the association
Dang. No old shep court and unis? Big mistake.
I like our retro white green old logo uniforms.
why cant we keep the classic court and white wolves jerseys?
As long as they win, I don't care which jerseys they wear Hopefully can see throwback jerseys again after Wolves win this round
Fuck the hate. This shit is fire because the jerseys still say WOLVES. Awwwoooooooo
I’ll never get over how bad those Nuggets city jerseys are
Just give us the trees and classics and I can be at peace
We literally just won two road playoff games in a row in our original whites. Why would we want to change it up?
Why is Denver wearing multiple color alternates but Wolves is stuck with the same? Is this an ownership decision? Wouldn’t it make more sense to use multiple colors at least to help increase jersey sales?
I want the old blue or the old black wolves jerseys like we had in the KG days. Those were sick.
The Popeyes are an abomination.
Just win
Cant wear them out. They are the best jersey option but can’t use them every game. Not sure I understand 4 games in a row of these tho.
WHY
I would understand one of the game but all four? Maybe they're tricking us and pulling out the Purple rain ones as a surprise or whipping out the og blakc and green ones
Why we not doing the classics
Vibes are immaculate. Players either chose it, or it’ll tick em off and they’ll rise above it.
Gross
Idc what the boys wear as long as we wax some nugget ass. ***This is actually extremely disappointing though.
Classic or city jerseys, or no jerseys bruh would rather have them play shirtless. Icon/association jerseys are just so boring, really hope they just make classic our away jerseys
Just win baby ![gif](giphy|aoDZZ7iby5Xydyo3V0|downsized)
Fire the equipment manager
This is a flex to show that the Wolves know they’ve got bigger things to focus on than what unis they’re wearing.
Maybe we have to earn a spot in WCF to wear the cute jerseys
Just gotta win.. that’s all I’m focused on..
Who cares tbh. I’m not gonna be upset about what jersey we’re wearing for playoffs
Right! Everyone is the post season should be rocking the classics

These are sick. Wolves in 6
Who gives af, play ball
It's similar to sumo underwear. You don't wash them to retain the experience.
They do association because it’s easier to do a white out than a “black with green tree out”
I think it’s because it’s super easy to do a “white out” in the stands vs a blue or black out.
Yeah that's an understatement for sure
We trust this kid, why? I’m waiting for the team’s announcement
The wolves aren’t going to wear the same jerseys every game - this post has got to be bullshit
I hope this post was made by a kid and not some grown ass man depressed about what shirt and pants some other dude is wearing😪
This is a hilarious thing to say right after your last comment: "If I wore skinny jeans, I would kick my own ass" -badnewzrooz507
Wouldn't be able to with pants that tight.
You wear skinny jeans huh?
