The Minnesota Timberwolves suspend Al Jefferson
The Timberwolves have suspended starting C/PF Al Jefferson for the next two games after his arrest on suspicion of DWI. Jefferson has played in 59 games (all starts) for the T-Wolves this season and he is averaging 32.6 minutes, 17.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals per game. Darko Milicic and Kevin Love will likely see bumps in playing time the next two games. Milicic has played in 5 games (0 starts) since coming over in a trade with the Knicks and he is averaging 20.4 minutes, 4.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game. Love has played in 41 games (20 starts) for the T-Wolves this season and he is averaging 29.2 minutes, 15.1 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. The Timberwolves pay Jefferson enough money that he could have called a cab.
