The Minnesota Timberwolves are 1-2 in their three games since Anthony Edwards was sidelined. They got their only win on Friday against a 1-5 Los Angeles Clippers team. After Saturday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs, Minnesota now sits at 4-3 overall.
Just like the Clippers, Minnesota faces several upcoming opponents that are far from title-contending clubs. The Timberwolves have definitely hit a point in the schedule where it eases up. They need to stack wins in games they should win, starting Monday night at home against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Four very winnable games over next 12 days
After the Milwaukee Bucks traded Giannis Antetokounmpo, everyone expected them to be in a rebuilding stage.
