Best memes and tweets after Timberwolves win their Super Bowl

After winning their Super Bowl in the NBA’s play-in tournament, Timberwolves fans celebrated like never before on social media.

The Timberwolves defeated the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night behind an incredible 31-point fourth quarter, as they overcame a late deficit to clinch a spot in the first-round against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Was the celebrating a little over the top? Sure. But why the heck not? Participation trophies don’t grow on trees.

Grow the game, right?

Random NBA fans probably don’t understand the hardship Timberwolves supporters went through on a yearly basis.

But it doesn’t mean we also can’t have some fun at their expense.
