After yet another long road trip, the Minnesota Timberwolves return home later tonight to host their first of two straight games at Target Center (tonight against the Hornets and then tomorrow against the Raptors). After that, it’s roughly a week off for the NBA All-Star break, which should give plenty of players on the Wolves roster a much-needed chance to recharge and refocus prior to their playoff push (did I really just type that?)
Anyway, before we recap some of the under the radar news stories from the last week, I’d like to take a moment to just give thanks and appreciate how much more enjoyable this season has been than basically any season I’ve covered over the last six years:
Quite the turnaround.
