Game #52: Can the Wolves cool off the Heat?
The Miami Heat are suddenly one of the NBA’s best stories after reeling off 10 straight victories to move to 21-30.
Oddly enough, the Minnesota Timberwolves have some experience snapping win streaks this season. The Wolves ended Houston’s 10-game win streak back on Jan. 11 with a 14-point win. Eight days later, the Wolves ended the shorthanded L.A. Clippers’ seven-game win streak at Staples Center.
But what Miami brings a different animal into Target Center with its win streak. The Heat’s starting back court of Goran Dragic and Dion Waiters have combined to average 42.1 points per game on 52.6 percent shooting and 53.8 percent from three-point range over the team’s last 10 games.
