For now, at least

Star Tribune:

Rick Adelman said before tonight's season opener that Derrick Williams will start for injured Kevin Love at power forward against Sacramento and he'll bring Dante Cunningham off the bench behind Williams.
"Well, we just think it's the best way to go to start with," Adelman said. "We like Dante coming off the bench, his energy level, and so we decided to go that way.

"It's more about what's best for the team. What's the best starting group, getting him started. And like I said, Dante gives us a lot of energy off the bench and we'll see how it goes. It's just something we thought was best for the team, best for the rotation. "
