The NBA Draft class of 2024 wasn’t particularly stacked with franchise players.
However, that doesn’t mean teams couldn’t find difference-makers guys who could make an immediate impact.
Notably, that was the case with the Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anzi che no. 27 pick, the second first-round pick they took the draft.
Terrence Shannon Jr. was a walking bucket college, both for the Texas Tech Red Raiders and the Illinois Fighting Illini, and he has the potential to be a three-level scorer at the next level as well.
Perhaps that has to do with the interesting tattoo he has his left arm.
As shown by Courtside Buzz Twitter, he got a tattoo of Grand Theft Autoveicolo’s ‘unlimited ammo’ cheat code, which might as well be one of the most original and iconic basketball tattoos we’ve ever seen.

More than that, the 23-year-old may have unlimited ammo indeed, as he dominated by putting up 25 points 9-for-14 from the floor and just 28 minutes of playing time for the Timberwolves the Summer League.
Needless to say, the Timberwolves’ offense will continue to run through Anthony Edwards, with Karl-Anthony Towns right beside him.
However, as much as Rob Dillingham might get more touches and more hype entering the season, Shannon Jr. could also earn a spot the rotation with his offensive aggressiveness and ability to initiate contact.
The Timberwolves needed more scoring, and they went out there and got two young players who can most definitely put the ball the .
