LAS VEGAS (AP) - Kevin Love was held out of the Minnesota
Timberwolves' summer league game this afternoon against the New
York Knicks for precautionary reasons with an inflamed left
Achilles.
He left in the second half of Minnesota's game yesterday against
the Milwaukee Bucks with the same injury.
Team officials don't consider it to be severe.
Love was expected to practice later today with the U.S. national
team at a local high school. He was added to the select team
yesterday as an extra body for practice in preparation for the
Olympics.
Love was the fifth overall selection in last month's draft. He
averaged a league-best 13.5 rebounds in four summer contests. He
added 18 points per game.
