NBA Twitter Reacts To Patrick Beverley’s Play-In Win Celebration
Last night, the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Clippers in their play-in game and advanced to the NBA playoffs as the seventh seed of the Western Conference.
It was only their second playoff berth since 2004, when they were still led by Kevin Garnett.
While the Clippers will now have to face the winner of the Pelicans vs Spurs game to play for the final playoff spot, the Wolves will face the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round.
While D’Angelo Russell and Anthony Edwards were the stars of the night, Patrick Beverley was stealing all the spotlight after the game. Beverley grabbed some clutch rebounds and played some great defense in the win against his former team, and let loose after the final whistle was blown.
Beverley had tears in his eyes, celebrated with fans and acted like the Timberwolves had just won the NBA championship. As you can imagine, NBA Twitter loved it. Here are some of the best reactions.
