Like a lot of his teammates, Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague is adjusting to the fast pace the Wolves want to play at this season.
For now, he’d prefer if he wasn’t on the floor for extended periods of time just so he can catch his breath.
“I like playing shorter stints,” Teague said. “I didn’t play basketball all summer, so the thing for me is just trying to get rust off and trying to build my endurance. ... I’m still a little ways behind everybody else. Shorter stints are probably better for me.”
This is the balance coach Ryan Saunders is trying to find as the Wolves enter the season.
