Thunder played the first match against Minnesota (108:115) and suffered an away defeat. In the second match Daigneault's men put up a fight to Denver (117:122).
Minnesota have a good chance for a play-off spot. During the off-season Chris Finch's men brought Rudy Gobert into the line-up. He will surely improve the Wolves' defensive game. But Frenchman needs some time to blend into the squad.
