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.

MPR News host Cathy Wurzer checked in with Howard Sinker for the latest. Sinker is a digital sports editor for the Star Tribune.
