Wolves Updates 8/29

Al Jefferson and Coach Wittman are hosting lunch and providing school supplies for the kids from the Waite House, the program whose kids and staff were on the school bus on the I-35W bridge when it collapsed.

Kare 11 has video of Corey Brewer and Chris Richard at the Minnesota State Fair.

From Mike Max/WCCO:
The recently-acquired Wolves player, Al Jefferson has moved to the Twin Cities and is working out with coaches daily.

And
did you know first round pick Cory Brewer was offered a scholarship by
every SEC team coming out of high school but one? The only one not to
offer him one was Kentucky, who then head coach Tubby Smith told Brewer
he was not big enough.

Mike Trudell/Timberwolves site talks to Randy Foye about his offseason. On Brewer looking to him for leadership during the summer league, Foye said:

I’ve played against Corey before, and he knows that I’m quiet and
humble, but I’m an assassin. I’m not the rowdy type that needs to tell
everyone what I’m doing. I’m not the type to dunk and look in the
crowd; if I dunk, I’ll look at my teammates and say, "Good pass." I’m
not playing for the crowd, I’m playing for my teammates. Hopefully the
younger guys around me see how I act in that leadership role and can do
the same thing.
