The Minnesota Timberwolves have now lost five games in a row after Sunday’s non-competitive defeat at the hands of the Golden State Warriors. Their 27-19 record has them seventh in the Western Conference, behind the Phoenix Suns via tiebreaker, and thus in a play-in position for now.
Of course, the goals and aspirations heading into the season were to be a title contender. Luckily for the Timberwolves, they employ Tim Connelly, who has shown in his Minnesota tenure that he is certainly unafraid to make deals that he believes will help the team.
They clearly need more depth come playoff time
It was yet another game on Sunday where the Timberwolves’ bench got completely outplayed by the opposing reserves.
