Wolves President of Basketball Operations and head coach Flip Saunders held his season-ending press conference early this afternoon at Target Center.
Notes/Quotes
- Saunders confirmed that Ricky Rubio will not play for Spain in the European Championships. "He will not play for Spain," Saunders said. There were no further details about Rubio's surgery or any specific time frames but selfishly speaking I'm happy to hear Rubio will be focusing on getting healthy over the summer after appearing in a career-low 22 games this season.
- Praise for Shabazz Muhammad: "Realistically, of all the guys [until he got hurt], Shabazz might have been the most impressive of all those players with how he had been playing at that point," Saunders said when talking about the youth in Minnesota.
