When asked how his team responded to its defeating loss to the Sacramento Kings on Monday at Tuesday’s practice, Timberwolves head coach Ryan Saunders stated the obvious.
“Guys were disappointed; we all were — for a number of reasons,” Saunders said before Wednesday’s practice. “We all wore our emotions, but we also went through film, we addressed what went wrong and then we went through it on the court.”
It’s bittersweet that Monday’s overtime loss came before a four-day break from games. On one hand, the Wolves would have liked to have had an earlier opportunity to right their wrongs instead of letting the bad taste of Monday’s loss fester until Saturday’s afternoon, road game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
