Coach Ryan Saunders says the team has missed the point guard, especially in the fourth quarter of close games.
The Timberwolves got some relief on the injury front Wednesday, with Jeff Teague returning to the lineup after a four-game absence because of an illness.
Teague did not start but he did come off the bench.
“We’re glad to have Jeff back,” coach Ryan Saunders said. “We always want a full complement of players available, but sometimes when guys are out, you’re able to find other things about different individuals, but also about your team.
