The 1991-92 Minnesota Timberwolves season marked their third year in the NBA. Under head coach Jimmy Rodgers, the Timberwolves struggled, finishing with a record of 15-67, placing them last in the Midwest Division. This record was an exact repeat of their previous season, highlighting ongoing challenges in the franchise’s early years.
Key players included forward Tony Campbell, who was the team’s leading scorer, and rookie point guard Doug West, who showed promise. Despite their efforts, the Timberwolves had difficulty finding consistency on both ends of the floor. The season was marked by defensive vulnerabilities and a lack of offensive firepower.
The team played its home games at the Metrodome, drawing modest crowds despite the challenging season. While the Timberwolves struggled on the court, this period laid groundwork for future developments, including the eventual drafting of impactful players in subsequent seasons to improve their standing in the league.
- Regular Season Record: 15-67
