Ricky Rubio returns GDT

[kekgeek]

Teague is out
Jimmy is out.

Is a trade incoming?

[kekgeek]

Teague with a hurt knee. Jimmy is out with general soreness. And thibs wouldn't commit to Jimmy playing on the road trip.

Wiggins should play

[kekgeek]

It is now being reported Jimmy is refusing to play

[TAFKASP]

I don't care if Jimmy plays. I don't care if Wiggins plays. So long as one doesn't play then Okogie will and so far he's the only player holding my interest.

Jimmy is out again? (This is my Nic Cage 'you don't say' face).

Ya the report now is Jimmy is refusing to play and will not be playing on the 6 game road trip. Trying to force a trade.

Probably for the best. Hopefully something gets done here in the next week or so. This ensures his value doesn't get damaged by injury while at the same time helping the rest of the team move forward.

As for Teague, we did OK with Tyus starting in his place last year. Wow, we will likely be seeing a Tyus/Okogie starting tandem. My guess is that Okogie is set to guard Mitchell tonight. That should be fun.

Agreed!

WOJ's info paints a different picture than our local guys...

Adrian Wojnarowski ?@wojespn 38m
Sources: The Timberwolves suggested that Jimmy Butler rest vs. Utah tonight and there's an expectation that he will join the team on flight to Bay Area to play Golden State on Friday. Teams talking to Minnesota about trades say that the asking price remains steep.

FWIW that sounds like that's coming from the Wolves side. We will see what the reality is soon enough.

Edit:

Then you have these tweets with quotes from Butler's agent.
