There’s a buzz of hope fluttering about Wolves fandom early this season following two promising wins on the road to kick off the year. A combination of new blood on the roster and a renewed sense of urgency to make the most of Karl-Anthony Towns’ contract extension seems to have shocked life into the organization. If this momentum is sustainable remains to be seen.
The early high the organization and fans have been riding since last Wednesday gets put to the test against a frisky Miami Heat team tonight at the Target Center. The Heat are coming off two early victories of their own – the most recent being an overtime win at Milwaukee yesterday.
