Timberwolves' Tom Thibodeau: 'I like the team we have' with Jimmy Butler out injured

The Timberwolves play on without injured star Jimmy Butler, continuing tonight at Sacramento in what is the start of a three-game trip and their final 19 regular-season games that'll determine if they reach the playoffs for the first time since 2004.

Wolves coach Tom Thibodeau said he and his staff will consider adding a player to a roster that has had one open spot all season, but said they won't be compelled to do so with Butler out for the next month or more.

"We talk every day about the possibilities," he said at this morning's shootaround.
