Running down the week in Minnesota sports, from the T-wolves to Gopher volleyball

There's a lot going on in Minnesota sports right now. In basketball, the Timberwolves are 7-2 since trading away disgruntled star player Jimmy Butler. At the college level, the University of Minnesota women's team is undefeated after six games.

Plus, the NCAA women's volleyball championship will be held in Minneapolis next month, and the Gophers are hoping to finally nab the top slot.
