Notes from Sid

From Sid Hartman/Star Tribune:
The Timberwolves expected Troy Hudson, the rehabilitating point guard, to start working out at Target Center on Aug. 15. If you were around Target Center this week, you would find Kevin Garnett, Ricky Davis, Trenton Hassell and a number of other Wolves have been working out every day. But no Hudson, and if you check the calendar, today is Aug. 24. ...

According to Street & Smith's SportsBusiness Journal, Garnett at $18 million will be the fourth-highest-paid player in the NBA for the 2006-2007 season behind Shaquille O'Neal ($20 million), Chris Webber ($19.13 million) and Michael Finley ($18.61 million). ...

Wolves coach Dwane Casey left Wednesday to put on a clinic in Tokyo and take in the World Championships.
