The Timberwolves have been on an impressive streak, showcasing their dominance in recent games with a strong winning record. Their latest performance against the Trail Blazers was nothing short of commanding, as they led for over 46 minutes and secured a massive 38-point lead at one point, cruising to a 128-91 victory.
