Minnesota Timberwolves to Play Against Israel’s Maccabi in Preseason


The T-Wolves announced that they’ll face Maccabi Bazan Haifa in October. Per the Star Tribune: “Israeli team Maccabi Bazan Haifa will visit on Oct. 16, three days after the Chicago Bulls come here on Oct. 13. It’s the first time an international team will play the Wolves at Target Center. The only other time the Wolves have played an international team is a game against Efes Pilsen during their 2007 preseason trip to Turkey. Maccabi also will play Golden State on its visit, on Oct. 11. The Israeli Super League team played New Jersey in Newark in 2010.”
