30. Minnesota Timberwolves
Last Week’s Ranking: 26
The Wolves held a seven-game losing streak going into Sunday, the longest in the NBA so far. That puts them at that bottom of the power rankings for the week. Minnesota snapped it with a win on the second night of the miniseries against the Spurs.
Ricky Rubio’s return to Minnesota has not resulted in quality on-court production. His scoring average has been cut in half from last season. He has not fully found his fit in the offense, getting fewer shots and not taking advantage of the shots he is getting.
On a positive note, Anthony Edwards has continued to impress in his rookie season. In their blowout loss to the Blazers, he scored a career-high 26 points. The Wolves also had a Karl-Anthony Towns sighting, who came back for the first game against the Spurs but sat out the second.
