The Wolves just announced that Nemanja Bjelica will miss tonight's game with the Detroit PIstons at Target Center with a sore right ankle.
It's unclear when he first injured the ankle. Though it should be noted that Bjelica, who had played two very strong games in New York and in Charlotte last week, has seen his minutes drop the last two games. He scored nine points on 3-for-5 shooting with three rebounds and a steal in the loss in Toronto Thursday.
The Wolves' starting five remains the same: Karl-Anthony Towns, Zach LaVine, Andrew Wiggins, Gorgui Dieng and Ricky Rubio.
