The Timberwolves are going to be one of the most-improved teams in the NBA this season, that much is obvious. But by how much will the improvement be in the win column?
We’ve all heard how rare it is for a team to jump ahead by anything in the neighborhood of double-digit wins; last year’s Wolves only made a three-win improvement from 2016-17. Philadelphia had the biggest leap, improving from just 10 wins the previous season to 28 a year ago. The Utah Jazz improved by 11 games in the 2017-18 campaign.
The Timberwolves won 33 games last season.
