Is Wes hurt? 

Post#1 » by Rodddman » Wed Oct 27, 2010 5:53 am

Wes is on my fantasy team and ESPN have him listed as day to day.

I haven't heard anything so I'm wondering if he is expected to suit up tomorrow.

Rookie Wes Johnson is so excited about playing in his first real NBA game that Tuesday he said, "I came to practice today dancing."

So that might mean his bothersome hamstring muscle is better, huh?

"Hamstring's fine," said Johnson, who has been bothered by it since July. "I don't know if it's adrenaline or whatever, but I feel good."

He wore a light knee brace in practice Tuesday that's intended to stabilize his leg and help protect his hamstring. He said he doesn't know whether he'll wear it Wednesday.

From the Star Tribune, http://www.startribune.com/sports/wolve ... page=1&c=y

• Expect Wayne Ellington to start at shooting guard Wednesday. He started Friday's preseason finale there and has been wearing a starter's jersey in practice all this week.

I guess Brewer and Wes will split the SG and SF backup minutes for tomorrows game. Starting 5 and bench looks like:

PG - Ridnour - Telfair
SG - Ellington - Brewer - Ager
SF - Bealsey - Johnson - Hayward
PF - Love - Tolliver
C - Milicic - Pekovic - Koufos

Lets hope Ellington keeps his hot shooting alive, and Brewer, Pekovic, Tolliver and Wes bring energy, defense and points off the bench. Wolves by 10.
