Fox 9 Sports Now: Talking Timberwolves with Henry Lake
FOX 9 Sports Now: Timberwolves gearing up for playoff push
The Minnesota Timberwolves fell to 43-33 after a 134-112 loss at the Boston Celtics on Sunday, but are still battling for the No. 6 spot in the West with six games to play. Henry Lake joins Jim Rich on Fox 9 Sports Now to chat Timberwolves and how far they can go this season.
MINNEAPOLIS - The Minnesota Timberwolves have become one of the hottest tickets in town, and the team is hoping that trend continues into the NBA Playoffs.
The Timberwolves fell to 43-33 on the season after a 134-112 loss at the Boston Celtics Sunday night. With eight regular season games remaining, the Timberwolves are 1.5 games behind the Denver Nuggets for the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference, which is the last spot to avoid being in the play-in series.
If the current standings hold, the Timberwolves would host the L.A. Clippers in a one-game playoff to move on and face either the L.A. Lakers, or New Orleans Pelicans.
Sunday night on Fox 9 Sports Now, Henry Lake joined Jim Rich to talk about the Timberwolves, and his new partnership with Duck Donuts. They talk about Karl-Anthony Towns playing at an All-NBA level, and Anthony Edwards’ recent comments about the team having "swag."
