- The 1998–99 NBA season was the Timberwolves' 10th season in the National Basketball Association. A year after signing Kevin Garnett to an unprecedented six-year $121 million contract, the Timberwolves had a heavy payroll and were forced to let Tom Gugliotta walk away and trade Stephon Marbury, fearing both would seek similar deals to Garnett; Gugliotta would sign as a free agent with the Phoenix Suns before the start of the season. Meanwhile, the Timberwolves signed free agents Joe Smith, and Malik Sealy, and acquired second-year guard Bobby Jackson, and Dean Garrett (who previously played for the T-Wolves during the 1996–97 season) from the Denver Nuggets in a three-team trade during the off-season. In a three-team midseason trade, the Timberwolves dealt Marbury along with Chris Carr to the New Jersey Nets, and acquired Terrell Brandon from the Milwaukee Bucks, while signing free agent and three-point specialist Dennis Scott, who was previously released by the New York Knicks. After a lockout cut the season to 50 games, the Timberwolves got off to a fast start winning eight of their first ten games, but played below .500 for most of the remaining season. They finished fourth in the Midwest Division with a 25–25 record, and made their third consecutive trip to the playoffs, winning a tie-breaker for the #8 seed in the Western Conference over the Seattle SuperSonics. Garnett averaged 20.8 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game, and was named to the All-NBA Third Team, while Smith averaged 13.7 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game, and Sam Mitchell provided the team with 11.2 points per game. In addition, Anthony Peeler contributed 9.6 points per game in only 28 games due to a strained left calf injury, while off the bench, Sealy contributed 8.1 points per game in only 31 games, Jackson provided with 7.1 points and 3.3 assists per game, and Garrett, the team's starting center, averaged 5.5 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. However, in the Western Conference First Round of the playoffs, the T-Wolves would lose in four games to the San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs would reach the NBA Finals for the first time to defeat the 8th-seeded New York Knicks in five games, winning their first ever championship. Following the season, Scott signed with the Vancouver Grizzlies. For the season, the Timberwolves added new black alternate road uniforms, which would remain in use until 2008. (en)
