Chase Budinger (knee) was spotted shooting jumpers and is "nearing" a return.
Budinger's timetable has always had him returning in mid-March, so he could be back as soon as next week. That's wonderful news for a badly injured Timberwolves team as Budinger will help at both shooting guard and small forward when he returns. However, he's still not doing contact drills and is hoping to return in 2-3 weeks.
