Amidst Adversity-Filled Season, Do the Timberwolves Have One Last Push in Them?

Every team, every franchise goes through adversity at some point. You may make it through most of a season unscathed, or if you’re really lucky, maybe one full season. But eventually, everyones luck runs out, especially on the injury front. Things weren’t perfect for the 2021-22 Minnesota Timberwolves, but they did experience very good injury luck.

It’s difficult to find accurate, publicly available “games lost to injury” data, but needless to say the Wolves were fortunate that Anthony Edwards was available for 72 games last year and Karl-Anthony Tows played in 74. There were few extended absences from prominent role players as well.
