When he is not hosting on game nights Jon enjoys binge watching his favorite TV shows and movies, eating blue corn tortilla chips, playing with his son and traveling whenever possible, but always loves coming back home to the Twin Cities. His ultimate goal is to host at the NBA Finals at Target Center
Katie
Katie graduated from the University of Minnesota and joined the Timberwolves organization as an in-arena host during the 2013-2014 Season. She may be in her 4th season on the mic, but has been watching from the stands since she was 6. Katie is a familiar face around the Target Center as a host with the Minnesota Lynx and the NCHC Frozen Faceoff.
Off the court, a few of Katie's interests include traveling, fishing, spending time with her French Bulldogs and of course...getting to know our Timberwolves fans!
Rod Johnson
The booming and unmistakably familiar voice of the Minnesota Timberwolves is none other than that of Rod Johnson. Rod has been the public address announcer for the Timberwolves since the 1996-97 season. When he's not being heard by the masses at Target Center, he is conducting fundraising activities with his own company, Johnson Auctioneering. As a nationally known auctioneer, Rod is a Minnesota and Wisconsin State Championship Auctioneer as well as a past finalist in the International Auctioneer Championship.
Rod and his wife, Bernie, reside in Cannon Falls, Minnesota where he currently serves as the director of Shepherd’s Center of the Cannon Valley. Rod has four sons; three serve in the military and one works in the Basketball Ops Department for the Timberwolves.
