The Wolves' Week Ahead

Tuesday: 6 p.m. at Indiana, FSN

Friday: 8 p.m. at Phoenix, FSN

Saturday: 8 p.m. at Denver, No TV

Player to watch: Goran Dragic, Suns

The Wolves play Phoenix twice in nine days, so if last week's Player of the Week was backcourt mate Eric Bledsoe, this week we're going with the other half of the Suns' two point-guard starting combination. Either can hurt you.
