Dave Chappelle is not quite done with the Twin Cities. Following a marathon week of standup shows (and a brand-new First Ave star), the comedy great will cap his stay midnight Sunday at Target Center, where he'll participate in a shootaround with members of the Timberwolves. Pancakes will be served, according to the "Chappelle's Show"-alluding press release.

Free entry is limited to 1,000 fans of hoops and/or humor, and you'll have to have a ticket stub or electronic receipt from any of Chappelle's 12 performances this week. It all goes down after his final show Saturday at Pantages. Target Center doors open 11 p.m. Sat.

Semi-related: Ricky Rubio and Timberwolves teammate Kevin Love tried their hand at comedy recently, with favorable results. Watch the new ESPN promo below. (Turns out you can actually call the number in the ad to hear a message from Rubio, that huggable doe-eyed Spaniard).

The Wolves did little to slow a New Orleans offense driven by Zion Williamson, who put his team ahead for good with 35.5 seconds left.
