## Resource

The Minnesota Timberwolves got a spicy NBA Cup draw in 2026, landing in Group West B with the reigning Western Conference favorites, the Oklahoma City Thunder, plus the New Orleans Pelicans, Memphis Grizzlies, and LA Clippers. With the Thunder looming as the group’s top threat and the Cup proven to be a springboard to Finals contention—like the Knicks’ historic run last year—the Wolves face a high-stakes battle to advance. The winner of each group plus one wildcard per conference will move on, and the championship will be held at the legendary Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, the same venue that made Hoosiers iconic. This matchup could define their season.
