After the exciting playoff run last season, the Minnesota Timberwolves are gearing up for another exciting season, but things will look different on their jerseys moving forward.

NBA teams are allowed to have an "official jersey patch sponsor" and since 2021, cybersecurity company Aura has been the Timberwolves' patch sponsor, but the team just signed a new deal with a Minnesota-based company that will change the look of the team jersey moving forward.

The Timberwolves announced that they have partnered with Sezzle, a financial-tech company that offers "buy now, pay later" options for shoppers, Sezzle has its headquarters in Minneapolis, and now their logo will be on featured on Timberwolves jerseys for at least the next 3-years.

This is the first time that Sezzle has partnered with a pro sports team, and they hope that the team's new-found success with stars like Anthony Edwards and Ruby Gobert will lead to more national exposure for the growing brand.

Charlie Youakim, CEO of Sezzle told Forbes, "Anthony Edwards is the next coming of Michael Jordan, and we feel like the Timberwolves could get us great national exposure". Edwards has a LONG way to go before he reaches Jordan level, but he and the Timberwolves will surely bring the brand exposure as the team will surely be featured in more nationally televised games this upcoming season.

The 2024–25 NBA season will be the 79th season of the National Basketball Association, and it is scheduled to start October 22nd, individual team schedules will be out soon, the last two years the NBA has released them on August 17th, so we should see them within the next week or so.
