Minnesota Timberwolves (27-30)

The year didn’t start off great for the Minnesota Timberwolves, who entered training camp with a Jimmy Butler sized problem on their hands. After they tried to ride it out for a while, the Wolves eventually traded Butler to the Sixers for Robert Covington, Dario Saric, Jerryd Bayless and a second-round pick.

On top of that, the team elected to move on from team president and head coach Tom Thibodeau a couple months after the trade. He simply wasn’t the answer anymore, and the team clearly wanted to move in a different direction.

All in all, this will be looked back as a lost season for the Wolves. They have some important decisions to make regarding their future this season, and have to figure out a way to make Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns work.

Grade: C-
