Timberwolves Play By Play Announcer

Timberwolves play by play announcer is Michael Grady who took on the role in August 2022. Grady will team up with analyst Jim Peterson for Bally Sports North.

Grady has replaced long-time announcer Dave Benz who served as the Minnesota Timberwolves’ lead voice for a decade. He was not retained as the announcer and was let go in May 2022.

No one expected the departure of Benz who had formed a commendable partnership with Peterson. Benz felt heartbroken and sad when he was informed about the decision.
