The Wolves come out of the All-Star break having played 61 games, the most of any team in the NBA.
In the final month and a half of the season, the Wolves have a unique schedule.
“It’s 21 games in 47 days,” Wolves coach Tom Thibodeau said after Thursday’s practice. “And there’s some unusual breaks, too, in terms of we have a five-day break, we have two three-day breaks, we have four two-day breaks. For our players, most NBA players, like to play every other day. . . Whatever comes our way, we’ll have to deal with it.
