The Timberwolves defeated Utah on Dec. 26 to put their record at 2-0. Four months later, they had played 60 games and were still in search of another two-game winning streak.
Then, starting last Saturday, the Wolves swept a home-and-home series with Utah (best record in NBA; minus Donovan Mitchell), won at Houston and pounded extra-small Golden State 57-34 on the boards for a 126-114 win Thursday night at Target Center.
Four straight … a winning streak not experienced by the Wolves since Nov. 23-28, 2018. Shawn Fury, Fulda, Minn-connected, and I were in attendance as spectators for the first of those, in Brooklyn on the day after Thanksgiving.
