Friday evening the Timberwolves and Memphis Grizzlies game became the 13th NBA game this season postponed as the league battles the effects of COVID-19, and shortly after the announcement star center Karl-Anthony Towns revealed he has tested positive for the virus.
The game, originally scheduled for 7 p.m. at Target Center, was postponed due to health and safety protocols, per the league's official announcement. Ongoing contact tracing within the Timberwolves team left them without the required eight available players.
A rescheduled date has not been announced, and it's unclear whether the Wolves game scheduled for Monday in Atlanta will be affected.
