I thought the plot of the movie was they didn't have enough for a full team, except this one weird loophole allows a dog to play.

Ok but it's not the NBA, you can easily just grab a kid and put a jersey on him lol

From Wikipedia, he was just a mascot until:

The Timberwolves struggle in the championship game and an injury leaves them with four players. Buddy shows up to the crowd's cheers. After it is discovered that there is no rule preventing a dog from playing basketball, he is added to the roster and...

spoilerleads the team to victory.

To be fair, if a dog is better at basketball than you maybe it's time to try a different hobby or practice harder next year.
