Despite an item in yesterday’s Minneapolis Star-Tribune,
Villanova assistant coach Ed Pinckney has not agreed to become an
assistant with the Minnesota Timberwolves, a source close to the
situatino said.

Pinckney, a star big man at Villanova who played 12 NBA seasons, has
been approached by several teams over the last 2 years. He was
unavailable for comment.

 
I’m not buying all this Sebastian Telfair talk in Minnesota, and I fully expect Foye to be the starting point guard from Day One. With the youth movement in full effect, expect Foye to take advantage in his second season.

 

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban reportedly admitted that
he thought the team was close to getting Garnett on draft day. So, what
might the Timberwolves have gotten? A source says the package featured
PG Devin Harris and SF Josh Howard.
