Pick of the Litter: T-Wolves Draft Prospects

Hassan Whiteside While there is plenty of competition at the Center position, Hassan Whiteside tops our list as the best Center in the 2010 NBA Draft. The Marshall big man enters the Draft after finishing what was the most dominate performance by a freshman since Michael Beasley at Kansas State in the 2007-08 season. Beasley dominated the scoring column during his only season with K-State while Whiteside's stats were more impressive across the board. To call him a stat stuffer would be an understatement as he recorded 3 triple doubles in points, rebounds, & blocks (he also had games were he ended having a double double with 9 & 8 blocks on the side). Needless to say Whiteside possesses natural shot blocking abilities that are a combination of his great anticipation and freakish 7'7" wingspan (tied with Shaq for 3rd longest in past 20 years). Aside from his potential as the anchor of a teams defense, he also has an offensive game that is quite diverse and well deve

(AL)L IS LOST

After the Month of January everything appeared to looking up for Al Jefferson and the Timberwolves. Unfortunately for Big Al, February has just gone from BAD (All-Star Snub) to WORSE (Torn ACL). In New Orleans on Sunday February 8th, Al Jefferson tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee. The injury happened with just under 30 seconds left of a 94-94 tie. Jefferson landed awkwardly with all his weight going through his right leg after blocking Sean Marks shot while fouling him in the process. He will undergo surgery on February 18th in New York to repair his torn ACL. Al Jefferson is the 2nd member of the Timberwolves who have torn thier ACL this season, as Corey Brewer is out all season after undergoing a similar surgery. In fact they are not the only NBA players who have torn their ACL's this season. Milwaukee's Micheal Redd also suffered a torn ACL while playing early this season, and in the past year there have also been two major sports figures who have t

A NEW LOOK FOR THE NEW FIELD

Old Logo New Logo Well what do you think? Obviously the changes are minor, the most noticeable being the navy colored ring around the baseball that says Minnesota Baseball Club inside of it. A change that is a little less noticeable to the every day person is the new TWINS font. First off the font is less block like, now with sharper edges on all the letters especially the S in Twins. Also there is no longer an embedded navy shadow highlighting the red Twins font, instead the font now has a bold navy outline all along the letters. You'll also notice that the baseball has been rotated so the stitching no longer runs through the Twins font. The stitching size was also increased which makes the proportions of the ball more accurate to real life. JERSEYS: The changes to the Navy Alternate Away jersey are subtle as only the new font has changed on the front of the jersey. However the Gray Away jersey got a complete over haul as the Pin stripes have been washed away and the Block letters
