Earlier this week, the Minnesota Timberwolves had an opportunity to cement a five-game win streak over a short-handed Detroit Pistons team in what was the Wolves’ first of their final 20 games before we hit the NBA All-Star Break.
Instead, Minnesota got blown out, Taurean Prince rolled his left ankle (which he has had surgery on multiple times over his NBA career), Anthony Edwards was ruled out with a nagging hip injury before surprisingly re-entering, and the vibes were pretty bad.
The following day, we asked Timberwolves fans how many wins the team would need to rack up in the 19 games heading into the break.
