Emotional Jimmy Butler returns to Wolves practice, reportedly challenges teammates
Yes, Jimmy Butler was ... here.
Officially, that’s about all that came from post-practice comments Wednesday. Coach Tom Thibodeau’s news conference was ended before he was asked whether Butler, still on the trading block but still technically a part of the team nearly a month since requesting a trade, had practiced with the Timberwolves.
“He was,” Wolves veteran Anthony Tolliver began. Then: “He was around. That’s really all I got to say about that.”
Said Jeff Teague: “I’ve seen him.”
