Dillon Brooks wants the Ant-Man.<\/p>\n
The Phoenix Suns swingman Brooks appeared this week in a \u201cMillion Dollaz Worth of Game\u201d video feature. During the feature, Brooks made some shady comments about the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/p>\n
\u201c[The Timberwolves] run into us [during the playoffs], it\u2019s gonna be problems,\u201d said Brooks<\/a>. \u201cWe got their number this year.\u201d<\/p>\n Brooks is right that the Suns have beaten the Timberwolves during both head-to-head matchups so far this year. The two teams also have their final meeting of the regular season on March 17 at Target Center in Minneapolis, Minn.<\/p>\n With the Timberwolves sitting at No. 4 in the West this season and the Suns at No. 7, it is entirely possible that the two sides could face each other in the first round as part of a 3-6 or a 4-5 matchup. The prior history is there too as Minnesota and Phoenix faced each other in the first round of the 2024 playoffs (with the former winning in a four-game sweep). The first-year Suns player Brooks also himself played Minnesota in a 2022 first-round playoff matchup as a member of the Memphis Grizzlies (with the Grizzlies winning that series in six games).<\/p>\n Of course, the former All-Defensive selection Brooks has some bigger things to worry about right now besides the Timberwolves. He is currently recovering from a broken hand which is expected to sideline him through late March to early April, and he was also just arrested for DUI in Arizona a few days ago<\/a> (though Brooks was released without any immediate charges).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dillon Brooks wants the Ant-Man.
