Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns was taking shots before practice on Wednesday — but he wasn't using his left hand.
Towns was unable to practice because of a left wrist injury that kept him out of the Wolves' final game before the All-Star break, and he is expected to miss multiple games as the Wolves continue their season beginning with Friday's matchup against Boston. Coach Ryan Saunders did not provide a timetable for Towns' injury or describe its severity. When asked if Towns would miss more than one game because of the injury, Saunders said, "Yes," but provided nothing more.
