From Ray Richardson\/Pioneer Press:<\/a><\/div>\n

The Milwaukee Bucks will notice a couple of changes in Timberwolves guard Ramon Sessions during tonight’s NBA exhibition game at Bresnan Arena.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sessions, who played mostly point guard the past two seasons with the Bucks, is getting more time at shooting guard in the Wolves camp. He also will be more vocal than he was with the Bucks.<\/em><\/p>\n

“I’m trying to be one of the leaders,” said Sessions, heading into his third NBA season. “That shows you how young we are, if I’m considered a veteran.”<\/em><\/div>\n

From Jerry Zgoda\/Star Tribune:<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/a>Jefferson will play his first game since he suffered that season-ending knee injury last February. Wolves coach Kurt Rambis said he doesn’t know how much he’ll play Jefferson and said he will defer that decision to trainer Greg Farnam.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Jefferson will return with a matchup against Andrew Bogut, an improving center who also is coming back from a season-ending back injury.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Playing again, that’s going to be fun for me,” Jefferson said. “I got a tough matchup. Andrew Bogut’s a tough guy. He’s going to be one to get ready for, to let know, you know, ‘Welcome back.”’<\/em><\/div>\n

From the Brian Stensaas\/Star Tribune: <\/a>Q&A with Brian Cardinal<\/p>\n

Q <\/strong>What was it like this summer keeping up with the seemingly day-to-day changes with the Timberwolves?<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n
A<\/strong> It was somewhat nerve-racking. We knew after our last game that there were people who weren’t going to be back, whether it was management, coaches, players — all across the board. At the same time, it was exciting. You realize that both Glen [Taylor] and David [Kahn] weren’t going to settle for mediocrity. I think a lot of the moves are a step in the right direction, and I’m excited to be a part of it.<\/em><\/div>\n

From Jonah Ballow\/Timberwolves site: <\/a>Wolves Make Impact In Mankato Community
Rookies Wayne Ellington and Jonny Flynn quickly realized the responsibilities of NBA players outside of the intense practices and games. After the morning session on Friday, Flynn and Ellington headed over to the Bridges Community School in Mankato.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all worth it; we are very blessed and very fortunate,\u201d Ellington said. \u201cTo be able to come out here and do things like this, reading stories to kids and put smiles on their faces means a lot to us.\u201d<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
From Sid Hartman: <\/a><\/div>\n
Kevin McHale, the former Timberwolves president, has been hired by the Dallas Mavericks to work with big men for a period. <\/em>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
From Charley Walters\/Pioneer Press:<\/a><\/div>\n
Rookie Timberwolves point guard Jonny Flynn is a rarity among NBA players \u2014 he has no tattoos.<\/em><\/p>\n

“I’ve got nothing against tattoos, but I just don’t want anybody prejudging me unless they meet me in person,” Flynn said. <\/em><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Also from Shooter: <\/div>\n
Pssst: The Timberwolves are seeking another investor. Otherwise, owner Glen Taylor might have to infuse more personal capital.<\/em><\/p>\n

Before the Wolves fired Kevin McHale as coach, new basketball president David Kahn canvassed minority investors for their opinion. Then he removed McHale. <\/em><\/div>\n
