The Minnesota Timberwolves kept it close in their game against the Denver Nuggets, eventually losing by a healthy amount.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been really bad the past few games, and seeing them be competitive with a Western Conference Finals team from last season was promising in itself. Without Karl-Anthony Towns, things have been undoubtedly rough.

The Timberwolves need to find a way to get in the win column again, and their upcoming schedule doesn’t exactly have any easy-wins (not that those exist in the NBA).

The Wolves go up against the Nuggets, Trail Blazers, Spurs (twice), and Grizzlies in their next five games.

Let’s get into the player grades.

The Timberwolves next game is in Denver on January 5th, 2021.
