The 2019–20 Minnesota Timberwolves season was the 31st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

The season was suspended by the league officials following the games of March 11^[1] after it was reported that Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19.^[2] On June 4, 2020, the season came to an end for the Timberwolves when the NBA Board of Governors approved a plan that would restart the season with 22 teams returning to play on July 31, 2020, in the NBA Bubble, which was approved by the National Basketball Players Association the next day.^[3][4] Due to their poor record, the Timberwolves season came to an end. However the Timberwolves won the draft lottery giving them the 1st pick in the 2020 NBA draft.
