Adelman will not coach tonight

Terry Porter will coach the Wolves against Oklahoma City

January 9, 2013 at 8:47PM

Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman will miss his second straight game at the helm. Adelman, who missed practice on Monday and Tuesday's victory over Atlanta, will miss tonight's game in Oklahoma City for personal reasons.

That means, for the second straight day, top assistant Terry Porter will be the head man on the Timberwolves' bench.

Meanwhile, the team has not given an update on the status of Kevin Love's broken right hand. He was scheduled to meet with a New York specialist today. It is possible an update will be available later in the day.
