From Don Seeholzer/Pioneer Press:
The Wolves, who open the regular season Oct. 29 against Sacramento, play back-to-back home exhibitions against Chicago and Milwaukee on Wednesday and Thursday…
Randy Foye’s 15 assists Sunday night against Denver are the most by a Wolves player in any game (exhibition, regular or postseason) since Troy Hudson had 15 against Cleveland on Feb. 28, 2003.
If the Wolves win their last two exhibitions, they would tie the franchise record of 7-1 set in 1995.

7. Randy Foye, Minnesota. We will cut him some slack for the knee injury that wiped out half of his second season, but the message to Foye hasn’t changed from Day 1 as a Timberwolf; if he’s going to make it as a point guard, he has to run the team’s offense, not just his own.
Look for Wittman to play Al Jefferson, Randy Foye, Mike Miller and Ryan Gomes together some to get a groove going for the Oct. 29 opener; he liked how they spread the floor for Big Al in Sunday’s game in Bismarck. Also look for him to get a last good look at the Ahearn-Ollie competition and there might even be a Calvin Booth sighting for the first time in a game this preseason.
The first annual Minnesota Timberwolves Radio Caravan hit the road Thursday beginning a journey that would bring the Radio Broadcast team to ten cities in four days. Day one began with play-by-play voice Alan Horton, analyst Kevin Lynch, and studio host and producer John Focke heading north to Duluth.
