Down the home stretch: Wolves at Suns tonight

Love, Milicic out again

April 12, 2011 at 2:13AM

The Wolves are about to tip off Game No. 81 in a long, seemingnly never-ending season that actually ends Wednesday at home against Houston.

Tonight, it's against Steve Nash and a Suns team that got thumped Sunday night in Dallas and also has nothing to play for.

The Suns' loss in Dallas assured their first losing season since 2003-04, the season before they brought Nash back to Phoenix by signing him as a free agent.

The Wolves are going again without Kevin Love and Darko Milicic tonight, and don't expect to see either two nights from now against the Rockets.
