The Timberwolves made the leap from 42 victories and a first-round playoff exit a year ago to 56 wins and their first Western Conference final in two decades.
Tim Connelly, the president of basketball operations, thinks the next level is reachable.
"When you're a home-court team and a final four team, all those teams can win a championship," Connelly said on Friday. "So I don't know if there is any linear path to that next step. I don't think there is one singular answer. A lot of it is matchups and health."
Connelly spoke the day after his team's 35th season ended with a resounding 124-103 loss in Game 5 of the conference finals to Dallas on Thursday.
