Mr. Timberwolve (Timberwolf?)

So Drew Neitzel is a Minnesota Timberwolve (however you say it). He's hoping to catch on and make the team, but his chances are pretty slim. Suffice to say, you probably won't see a picture like this coming out of Minnesota:

He's played in two summer league games thus far, getting 4 points on 2-3 shooting (13 minutes) and 10 points on 4-5 shooting (2-2 3-pointers, 15 minutes). He's even got a bio on the NBA Summer League page which has a photo I can't load and gives all his stats. It even says that he went to college at Oklahoma. Oops.

He might not be getting any love from the Summer League website, but he is on the Timberwolves home page. Neitzel is on the homepage doing an interview. A six minute inteview! Unfortunately it's with a gigantic douche who spends three minutes talking about the Hard Rock Cafe and Vegas nightlife. I'm pretty sure Neitzel wanted to stab him.

Probably more than most other Spartan grads, I want to see Neitzel succeed. He gave a lot to MSU basketball, and I just want to seem make it at the next level.

Good luck, Drew.
