After Tuesday’s embarrassing blowout loss at home, the Timberwolves are looking for all the luck they can get heading into tonight’s Game 2. Chris Finch clearly stated that his squad was low on energy in the previous encounter, likely due to their shooting struggles. They shot 34 of 86 from the field. But things could change tonight, as the Wolves’ sharpshooter Donte DiVincenzo is in a great mood and highly motivated. All because of Villanova pride.
Yes, Chicago native Cardinal Robert Frances Prevost was just voted as the first pope from the USA, dawning the name Pope Leo XIV. Turns out, he is a Villanova University alum, just like Donte who represented the Wildcats from 2015-18. So, the Wolves star was ecstatic after Pope Leo XIV got voted in. As per veteran insider Dave McMenamin, Donte entered the locker room with a huge smile, flashing his fingers in a V sign, and said, “I’m having a great day!”
He even received a text from Coach Jay Wright in the Wildcats group chat, “Did you see it guys?!?! Nova pride!” The election of Pope Leo XIV is a huge honor for Villanova, and it might have given Donte the motivation he needed for tonight’s game.
