40-29, 5th place in the Western Conference, 2.5 games behind the third place Portland Trailblazers and one game ahead of the eighth place San Antonio Spurs. This is what it’s all about.
When the Spurs hosted the Wolves on October 18th, it was the season opener for both teams. Expectations for the Wolves were high--Jimmy Butler was on the scene. The Spurs expected Kawhi Leonard to return from his hip injury relatively soon, and were expected to have another Spursian season.
That night, the Spurs would outlast the Wolves, 107-99, behind 25 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists from all-star LaMarcus Aldridge.
