The Wolves will hold the team’s annual Media Day on Friday, September 22 from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. at Mayo Clinic Square. Players will be in uniform and available for interviews, photo opportunities and a chance to discuss the upcoming season. Media credentials will also be disseminated to those media members that have been approved for season credentials.

Timberwolves President of Basketball Operations and Head Coach Tom Thibodeau, along with General Manager Scott Layden, will be available to the media in a press conference setting, followed by Wolves players. A complete media availability schedule will be sent out in the coming days. Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate any one-on-one interview requests on Media Day.

Following training camp, the Wolves will play three exhibition contests, including participating in two games as part of the NBA Global Games China: Oct. 5 at Shenzhen Universiade Center in Shenzen and Oct. 8 at Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai, both vs. the Golden State Warriors. The Wolves will serve as the designated road team in Shenzen and the home team in Shanghai. The games in China mark the first games ever played by the Wolves in that country and the first trip to Asia since the team played in Japan in 1999. It will be the Wolves’ ninth and 10th international games overall.
