Love re-fractures hand
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Love has re-fractured his right hand.
The team said an MRI on Saturday revealed that Love re-fractured his third metacarpal in the hand and that he will be examined by a hand specialist in New York.
The original injury, sustained Oct. 17, forced Love to miss the first three weeks of the season and has hampered his shooting. He re-injured the hand during the third quarter Thursday night at Denver.
