If the Wilf family owned the Vikings and the Timberwolves, it would be great for everyone involved.

On Tuesday, July 21, it was reported that the Minnesota Timberwolves were likely going to be sold. It didn’t take long for some suitors to emerge for the NBA franchise and one of them happened to be the current owners of the Minnesota Vikings.

Having the Wilf family take over the Timberwolves is an interesting concept. Having one ownership group control two franchises in the same state would allow some interesting opportunities and could be wonderful for all parties involved.

Pairing the NBA with NFL with the Wilf family at the helm could be a perfect combination for numerous reasons and if the sale were to go down, fans should be pretty excited as well as the community.

Let’s take a look at five reasons the owners of the Minnesota Vikings should be the ones to buy the Timberwolves and what kind of great things could come out of the purchase.
