Wolves Over The Weekend
Though initially hesitant, The Pharcyde graciously agreed to pose with the Claws.Mike James Day took place yesterday in Suffolk County. According to his site, he was going to "take this opportunity and return back to his old stomping grounds in Amityville to provide hope and assistance to those youth coming behind him." Although it was too damn hot for any in-town celebration, everyone in the Twin Cities took a moment to silently thank him for choosing basketball over a life of crime.
Troy Hudson's agent is whining to the Wolves about how they push his client "to do things he doesn't want to do" in order to earn his millions. He also continues not to allow the people who are paying him that money an opportunity to gauge the player's rehab progress. T-Hud is avoiding the situation by taking his rap act on a tour of the midwest.
KG is ranked at #11 along with Tom Brady in SI.com's list of the top earning athletes. Both took in $25 million in salary and endorsements this year. According to the list, KG is set to be the highest paid player in the NBA next season.
Anthony at Wolves Watch posts his take on Randy Foye.
With all the excitement about Foye's potential, I'd almost forgotten about second round pick Craig Smith til I saw this article from the Daily News.
"We saw him for four years at Boston College," reasoned Wolves GM Kevin McHale of the selection. "He went there as a freshman, and right away he rebounded and scored. Then he did it as a sophomore, junior and senior. We really liked him."
Sources at the Toshiba Vegas Summer League confirmed that the Wolves do have high hopes for Smith once his hand is recovered enough for him to return to the court.
