Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman decided after consecutive home losses last week to Memphis and Cleveland that he simply needs to get rookie Derrick Williams more playing time.
The question is: Just how will he do that every night?
So far, Adelman is figuring out a way, given that he still wants to play Williams mostly at a power forward spot already largely occupied by Kevin Love.
Williams played 30 minutes at Washington on Sunday, 28 minutes at Toronto on Monday and 22 more minutes in Tuesday's 111-100 loss to Chicago. He is developing an on-court relationship coming off the bench with fellow rookie Ricky Rubio.
You can see evidence of their growing familiarity just about nightly on the "SportsCenter" top dunks of the day.
