Getting Andrew Wiggins off and running is one of Ryan Saunders' key goals with Wolves

There was music in the air at Timberwolves practice Thursday, and it had been a long time since Andrew Wiggins said he heard tunes in the background a practice.

“I don’t know. College?” he said.

With the installation of Ryan Saunders as interim coach for the fired Tom Thibodeau, the Wolves will have some additional accompaniment when they practice and Wiggins got to be in charge of the playlist at Thursday’s session.

“I told them to play all Drake,” Wiggins said, referencing the rapper/singer and fellow Canadian.

After Wiggins’ 40-point night in Saunders’ victorious debut Tuesday night at Oklahoma City, the Wolves would have lived with it if he wanted to play nothing but somebody singing the phone book.
