MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Timberwolves delayed their game against the San Antonio Spurs by one hour due to an issue with the court at Target Center. The Timberwolves announced the decision about three hours before the originally scheduled tipoff time. The Spurs discovered the problem during their morning shootaround. The team decided to delay the game so arena staff had time to install the replacement court that had to be delivered from elsewhere. The Timberwolves have played at Target Center since 1990.
