Going into the team’s two preseason games against the Warriors, the Wolves talked about how good of a measuring stick it would be for them as a team to go up against the defending champions and winners of two of the last three titles.
Apparently, the Wolves measure up pretty well as they beat the Warriors 111-97 in Shenzhen on Thursday morning.
