Kevin Love will walk onto the Target Center floor Friday expecting some boos, just as he did every other time he returned to Minnesota after being traded to the Cavaliers in 2014.
The difference this time: He might have to get in line behind the Timberwolves’ Jimmy Butler, who has already said he expects to be booed by the home crowd.
The Wolves, who lost their opener 112-108 Wednesday in San Antonio, have their home opener Friday. As of early Thursday afternoon, there were about 1,800 tickets left for the game, so the crowd will be big.
