Argentina's Leandro Bolmaro shows some flair, could be part of Timberwolves' future

TOKYO — Leandro Bolmaro on Sunday answered multiple questions about his future with the Timberwolves without saying much. But he couldn't keep from smiling.

He played for Argentina against Japan in the Olympics on Sunday at Saitama Super Arena. Argentina won 97-77 and advanced to the men's basketball quarterfinals against Australia despite a 1-2 record in pool play.

Bolmaro came off the bench and played eight minutes, producing four points on 2-of-3 shooting with a rebound and three steals. He played briefly at the end of the first half, then finished the game on the court.

After one steal, he started a 2-on-2 fast break and finished himself, cutting inside a defender for a layup.
