There was, however, one major milestone the team reached during the past month or so: the Wolves clinched their first winning season since the Kevin Garnett days over a decade ago.

Regardless of the recent struggles, the biggest issue for the Wolves over this span has certainly not been related to scoring. The team has scored 111 points per game, good enough for 12th in the league since the break. They are still shooting it efficiently from the field (47.7 percent) and not terribly from 3-point range (37.3 percent).

Also, the team has shot well from the free throw line at 81.1 percent, good enough for fifth in the league at the stripe. They have also continued to limit their turnovers, which is something they’ve excelled at all season long.

In fact, their 110.9 offensive rating is seventh in the league over the past 13 games. On the season, they rank fourth in the league.
