Wolves Updates 4/3

The Wolves could face a tough finish to the season

Wolves point guard Sebastian Telfair is running
fairly well straight ahead on his sprained left ankle. But "laterally,
he’s still a little tender," Wittman said. Asked if he’s hopeful
Telfair will play again this season, Wittman said, "Yeah, we’ll see."
 
   
 
Timberwolves Vice President Fred Hoiberg, who has been scouting the NCAA and NIT tournaments, figures June’s NBA draft will be deep enough for the Wolves to get three quality players from their trio of picks (one first-round and two second-round). "If all the players declare who we think will declare," he said.

Saunders was impressed by Al Jefferson, who continues to dominate opposing centers. He scored 26 points against the Pistons.
 
"Al’s a load down there," said Saunders, whose team has all but
clinched the No. 2 seed in the East behind the Celtics. "Al’s got great
ability to score. What people don’t understand is he’s got such quick
feet. He’s a very, very explosive offensive player."
