Timberwolves at Pacers: Will the losing streak finally end?

After a strong start to the post-All-Star break schedule, the Timberwolves are in the midst of their worst swoon of the season with a losing streak that has reached six games.

And by and large, the losses haven’t been all that close, either. The defense that was suddenly formidable in early March has just as quickly disappeared. Opponents are scoring at will, and even the offensive attack that was seemingly coming easily has now sputtered to just 16th in the NBA in points scored per game.

The season-ending injuries to first Zach LaVine and, more recently, Nemanja Bjelica certainliy haven’t helped matters, and the team’s already-lacking depth has been exposed even more.
