No Love, No Humphries, no TV tonight at New Jersey

Wolves look to end 10-game losing streak with five games left

April 5, 2011 at 11:09PM

The Wolves and Nets are about to tip off here at Prudential Center in Newark, but you won't find this one anywhere on TV.

Neither team is televising the game, so you won't even find it on NBA League Pass.

Your only options: Radio or my insightful Twitter updates @JerryZgoda

Kevin Love (groin) and Darko Milicic (sprained ankle) didn't make the trip to New Jersey and both players are out tonight.

Minnesota's own Kris Humphries is out injured for the Nets as well because of a sprained ankle.

So, too, is rookie Damion James and former Wolves guard Sundiata Gaines.

Somebody's got to win: The Nets have lost six straight, the Wolves 10 straight.

The Wolves, btw, are going with the same starting lineup they used Saturday at Memphis: Beasley at Love's power forward spot, Wes Johnson at small forward, Nikola Pekovic at center, Wayne Ellington and Luke Ridnour at guards.
