A few minutes before tipoff against the Warriors on Sunday night at Target Center, the Timberwolves held a moment of silence to honor Alex Pretti, the Minneapolis resident killed by federal officers on Saturday.
“Target Center, we are heartbroken by the tragic loss of Alex Pretti that occurred yesterday in Minneapolis,” Timberwolves public address announcer Jedidiah Jones said over the microphone. “We extend our love, support and heartfelt sympathies to Alex’s family, friends and our community in this difficult time. Please join us in honoring the life and memory of Alex Pretti with a moment of silence.”
