The Minnesota Timberwolves are in the midst of their most successful stretch in team history. That year, they won 46 games, and they went on to win 42, 56, 49, and 49 games over the following four seasons. That means in 2026–27, Minnesota will have the opportunity to finish above .500 for the sixth straight year. They would need to go under by 7.5 wins to finish at .500, and thus not have a winning overall mark. If you look back at the previous two seasons, you’ll notice that they didn’t finish with a losing record in either one.
