Well, Timberwolves fans, we thought it would be a while before we had new Timberwolves news for you, but oh boy were we wrong. Flip Saunders is returning to the the Timberwolves as President of Basketball Operations. This is exciting news for Timberwolves fans every where because Saunders coached the Wolves from 1995-2005, leading them to eight straight playoff appearances. We would love to see that again! It's interesting because Saunders has replaced David Kahn who was actually fired on Thursday after four seasons. Saunders will have a minority stake in the franchise. The 58-year-old Flip Saunders, who also was a key player at the University of Minnesota, also showed up at a fewTimberwolves games this season while he was serving as an analyst for ESPN. We can not wait to see Flip Saunders be a part of the Timberwolves again and what he will do with this Minnesota basketball team.
