Timberwolves & Lynx Announce Participants for Tokyo Olympics

The Minnesota Timberwolves recently announced that they will have five members of their team (both players and coaches) participate in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, which are scheduled to start next month.

Guard Josh Okogie will represent Nigeria, forward Juancho Hernangómez and guard Ricky Rubio will represent Spain, and guard Leandro Bolmaro will play for Argentina while Timberwolves assistant coach Pablo Prigioni will serve as an assistant coach on the Argentinian National Team. The four players headed to Tokyo mark the most the Timberwolves have sent to a single Olympic game (three in both 2012 and 1992).
