Yes, that Wolves' 10-game losing streak could be history after tonight's game against Utah at Target Center.

At least it better be.

The Wolves haven't won since a Dec. 10 home game against Portland, but if they're ever going to win a game, what better time than against a Jazz team that doesn't look like the same one that last played the Wolves juat four days ago in Salt Lake City.

The Jazz already was without starting shooting guard Alec Burks that night.

On Saturday, they also were starting center Enes Kanter and missing Burks' replacement, rookie Rodney Hood, as well as Hood's replacement, Patrick Christopher.

The Wolves themselves were missing veteran Chase Budinger, who was out ill, in addition to the usual injured (Ricky Rubio, Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin).

The Jazz countered by starting Rudy Gobert at center, moving Joe Ingles into the starting lineup to combat the length of Anderw Wiggins and Shabazz Muhammad and planned to play Trey Burke and rookie point guard Dante Exum together a good bit in its backcourt.
