The Minnesota Timberwolves returned to action to take on the Chicago Bulls on Sunday night and cap off one of the wilder weeks in recent franchise history.
Marking their first home game since team governor Glen Taylor on Thursday terminated the sale of the Timberwolves and Minnesota Lynx to Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez, and the Wolves subsequently dominating the Denver Nuggets on the road to recapture the top spot in the Western Conference, no one really knew what we’d see (and hear) walking into Target Center.
Two people we didn’t see were Lore and Rodriguez, who say they have been shut out from communicating with team employees and players, as well as the arena’s tunnels and back rooms the pair have occupied all season long.
