Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns disputed the notion that the team had a Wednesday “players-only meeting,” telling reporters Friday:

“No. We had a film session, just as a team. Ok. What happened there? See this is why I don’t look at Twitter and s–t, bro. Y’all be making up s–t at any time, bro. I don’t know what the hell happened. Alright, yeah, we watched film, we had practice yesterday. I guess that’s a players only meeting. Yeah, we had practice.”

Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports previously reported the players held an additional meeting after Wednesday’s film session led by head coach Chris Finch. 

“Players watched additional film among themselves, challenged each other to play with urgency and to play the right way as well as stressed the importance of moving the ball,” Haynes reported.

The preparation comes ahead of the team’s Game 6 matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, as Minnesota trails 3-2 in the first-round series.
