Coming off a 119-100 win over the Utah Jazz at Delta Center Saturday night, the Minnesota Timberwolves were back in the same building on Monday, wrapping up a six-game road trip and hoping to sweep the season series with the Utah for the first time ever, stay above .500 in that span, and further boost their seeding outcome.
At this juncture in the schedule, every game is important regardless of the opponent. The Jazz, who sit at 13th in the Western Conference, are at a completely different point than the Wolves. Utah is rebuilding and looking to the future, while Minnesota is gearing up for a historic postseason run.
