The Wolves are one of the hottest teams in the NBA, winning nine of their last 12 games. That’s been enough to put them above .500 for the first time this season after Wednesday night’s win over the Charlotte Hornets.
The national media is taking notice of what the Wolves have done.
Uproxx has bumped the Wolves from No. 15 to No. 11 in their Week 7 NBA Power Rankings.
The Wolves, who as of Dec. 6, sit in 10th place in the West, but just percentage points from the eight seed and a half game back from the seventh.
