Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman says the team will be without Nikola Pekovic and Andrei Kirilenko in Denver Saturday night.
No chance for Pek or Kirilenko v Denver. Adelman says "Pek may go, but just to get the per diem."

Both players suffering from muscle strains aren’t expected to return to the lineup until next Tuesday.
On the bright side, Kevin Love was back on court shooting hoops after practice Friday.

Nice to see @kevinlove taking shots in post-practice workout. Been a while since I've seen that.

Love is scheduled to meet with his hand surgeon in New York next Wednesday.
