Although the Minnesota Timberwolves have many built-in excuses, they need to find a way to stop their losing streak as soon as possible.
No one realistically expected the Minnesota Timberwolves to contend this season. That belief was rooted in the fact that other teams were just better or were further along in their journey. However, there was still talent on the roster and therefore reason to expect them to be competitive.
Thursday’s loss in Portland was their sixth in a row, dropping their record to 2-6.
