Ranking the U-25 talent

Interesting article in the ESPN site today ranking the NBA teams by talent under the age of 25. While I'm not displeased with the Wolves #10 ranking, 7th in the West, I guess I thought they would be a little higher. It seems that they are being downgraded a lot because of Love's injuries, which I would argue are situational and not chronic. OKC and the Pelicans are great choices for the top two spots, both having incredible young depth along with talent, but I see Utah at #3 as a bad call. I don't really covet any of their six U-25 players. I also like the Wolves a little more than GS and Portland.
Overall I find the article favorable. The wolves have highly rated U-25 players and depth, but are likely to only start 2 of them, allowing their young talent to grow with less pressure.
