Jeff Teague suffered a Grade 1 MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) sprain in his left knee. Teague will be sidelined indefinitely. 

The injury occurred during the fourth quarter of last night's 128-125 overtime win over Denver.

In 31 games this season, Teague has posted averages of 13.4 points and 7.3 assists while shooting 44.7% from the floor including 37.5% from long distance.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski, the Wolves are optimistic Teague could return within two to four weeks.

Jeff Teague will undergo an MRI on his left knee.

Teague was injured when Gary Harris rolled over Teague's planted left leg in a scrum for the ball.

Tyus Jones will fill in for Teague if he's out for any extended time.

"As always, it's whatever the team needs me to do,'' Jones said Wednesday night. "I'm hoping Jeff is all right. You never want to see anyone go out with an injury. But it's the next man up. I'm ready to help this team in any way.''

A pair of fans shouted anti-gay slurs at Damian Lillard while walking to the Blazers' bus leaving Minnesota's Target Center.

"I don't bother nobody," Lillard told ESPN. "They were straight disrespectful."

Cellphone video captured an irritated Lillard approaching the hecklers, asking, "Which one of you all said that?"

A woman in the area pointed out one of the individuals, and that person apologized.

Sources at the scene say no action was taken against the fans.

Jimmy Butler spoke about Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins following Minnesota's narrow win on Monday over the Blazers.

"They can be as great as they want to be on both ends of the floor if they buy into it," said Butler. "But they gotta play hard. You can't take too many possessions off in this league. They got so many talented guys on the other team. But I think night-in and night-out you want to show that you're the best. You gotta go up against the best. I think in order to say that you're the best, you gotta whoop their ass every night."

Butler is in his first season with the Wolves and has been trying to bring a higher level of intensity to their defense. Towns and Wiggins have the physical tools to be good defensive players but have been inconsistent. 

Even though Kevin Garnett finished his career with the Minnesota Timberwolves, he and Glen Taylor parted on bad terms.

Garnett had interest in joining the Wolves in an ownership capacity but that deal fell through. Garnett feels promises were broken by Taylor.

“I don’t want to be partners with Glen [Taylor], and I wouldn’t want to be partners with Glen in Minnesota,” Garnett told Awful Announcing recently. “I would love to be part of a group that buys him out and kind of removes him and go forward.”

Garnett is currently consulting with a few teams and also featuring on TNT.

"You know what? I’m more with individuals versus the teams," said Garnett to Vice Sports. "I’ve gotta admit that. I’ve gotta say that Embiid, Karl-Anthony Towns, Jokic, Porzingis, Damian Lillard, Curry, Durant, I’m enjoying the young bucks, watching young Ingram get better and watching little L. Ball figure it out, you know what I’m saying? I’m checking it all out. I like individuals, not so much on the organizations. Obviously I’m gonna be with Minnesota and the players. Not so much upstairs. I don’t really deal with Minnesota’s upstairs. They suck. But Boston, all day. You know I’m a C ‘till I die. I always root for Brooklyn. But other than that I don’t really get into too many of the upstairs. I’m more watching the guys and watching their progression.

"But I love the competition. I love how the big is coming back. For a while the point guard position had it dominated for like four, five years. Now we have some promising bigs come into the game, starting to change the game a little bit."

The Charlotte Hornets attempted to engage the Chicago Bulls last spring on a trade for Jimmy Butler.

Sources say the Bulls had no interest in anything the Hornets could offer for Butler.

Chicago ultimately traded Butler to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Zach LaVine, Kris Dunn and a pick swap that led to Lauri Markkanen. 

Shabazz Muhammad turned down a four-year, $40 million contract extension from the Minnesota Timberwolves before the 16-17 season, according to Jerry Zgoda of the Star Tribune.

According to sources, Muhammad saw the spending of the 2016 offseason with the cap increasing and believed he would earn as much as $20 million per season as a free agent.

Muhammad's market was far softer than he expected and he was forced to choose between one-year offers between Minnesota and the Los Angeles Lakers. Muhammad re-signed with the Wolves for $1.58 million with a player option in Year 2.

Muhammad was previously represented by Rob Pelinka and now his agent is Rich Paul.

The Toronto Raptors, Washington Wizards, Minnesota Timberwolves and Milwaukee Bucks have reportedly shown the most interest in trading for DeAndre Jordan.

The Clippers have interest in John Henson, Malcolm Brogdon and Khris Middleton in their trade talks with the Bucks. The Clippers want at least two of those three Bucks in any trade for Jordan.

Jordan will be a free agent in the offseason and is currently operating without an agent. The Clippers are widely expected to fall out of playoff contention following the injury to Blake Griffin.
