There were a lot of coaches at the Timberwolves’ first training camp practice Tuesday morning.
I mean, a lot.
And not just the new staff head coach Tom Thibodeau has assembled. Duke and Team USA head coach Mike Krzyzewski and his Duke staff was there, one day after they had gone to Apple Valley to see Tre Jones. Former Wolves head coach and assistant Randy Wittman was there, as was University of Minnesota coach Richard Pitino.
After leaving Chicago, Thibodeau spent last season traveling around the country taking extended looks at the way other coaches did things.
