The newest Timberwolves — top pick Zach LaVine and just-acquired Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and Thaddeus Young — have arrived. They mingled with the team's top corporate sponsors and season-ticket owners at a downtown Minneapolis rooftop reception Monday night and will be officially introduced 1 p.m. Tuesday at the State Fair. Fans are encouraged to attend at the Fox Channel 9 location, corner of Dan Patch and Nelson streets. "I'm going to do good for Minnesota," Wiggins told Monday's audience, "and I hope it does good for me."
