Some members of the Minnesota Timberwolves took time out on Thursday afternoon to make the day special for some kids.
The Wolves held their annual Holiday Shopping For Kids event at the downtown Minneapolis Target.
Wolves stars including Ricky Rubio, Zach LaVine, Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns were on hand at the store to meet the kids, who are waiting to be adopted, and help them select gifts for the holidays.
Here are a few highlights.
