Juancho Hernangomez Reportedly Upset with T-Wolves After Being Blocked from Olympics
Minnesota Timberwolves forward Juancho Hernangomez is reportedly upset with the organization.
Per The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski, Hernangomez's frustration stems from the T-Wolves' decision to block him from playing for Spain in the Olympics.
Krawczynski added Spanish Basketball Federation officials believe Minnesota president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas made a "last-minute decision" to prevent the 25-year-old from playing with his home country.
In a statement released Saturday, Rosas said the Timberwolves team physician recommended Hernangomez not play for the Spanish national team.
