About Matthew »

Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I love basketball, and I've played it for 13 years, with hopes of one day going to an NBA development league.
I am a huge Minnesota Timberwolves fan and am currently the #1 writer for the Minnesota Timberwolves on bleacher report.
I am also ranked the 17th writer for the NBA on Bleacher Report.
I will be one of the writers for the new website Fanhuddle representing Timberwolves.
I can be followed on twitter at rep_mn08.
