After 76 games of an extremely tumultuous season, the playoff hopes for the Golden State Warriors depend on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
After the Wolves' win over the Kings on Monday night, the Warriors and Wolves are both 39-37 entering Tuesday's games. If both teams win out, Minnesota will finish in the top six, while the Warriors would be in the play-in tournament barring a collapse by the Clippers or Suns. (The Warriors and Wolves split their four games this season and Minnesota has a better record against conference opponents, which is the second applicable tiebreaker.)
In other words, the Warriors no longer control their own postseason destiny.
