Home opener is here: Wolves prepare for another emotional night

Back from a 2-0 road trip, the Wolves return to Target Center for tonight's home opener against Portland, an evening that is sure to be emotional poignant.

A video tribute to Flip Saunders -- expected to last about 15 minutes -- will play just shortly after 7 pm so it can be shown live on FSN's game coverage.

Fans are advised to be in their seats by 6:45 p.m. The north tunnel that leads to Hubert's will be closed about 6:55 to allow for player introductions and fans trying to enter there will be directed to the first-level concourse.
