Wittman said he hopes point guard Sebastian Telfair can practice next week if his sprained left ankle heals.
But the coach doesn’t expect Telfair to play in any games this week.
Telfair has missed the past five games, including Monday night’s
meeting with the Los Angeles Clippers.

Closer to home, Wolves coach Randy Wittman will hand the whistle over
to assistant coach Jerry Sichting for Thursday’s practice so he can fly
to California in the morning to watch his son, Ryan, play for Cornell
that afternoon against third-seeded Stanford in Anaheim. Then Wittman
will catch a red-eye flight for Indianapolis, where he is scheduled to
arrive in time for the team’s Friday morning shootaround before that
night’s game against the Pacers.
