MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Kevin Love returned from the London Olympics determined to do what every one of his U.S. teammates have already done - lead his team to the playoffs.
The Minnesota Timberwolves will likely have to begin the first month of that pursuit without him.
The two-time All-Star broke his right hand in a morning workout Wednesday and will miss six to eight weeks.
Love broke the third and fourth metacarpals on his shooting hand in a workout before practice. It's a crushing blow to the Timberwolves, who already will be without star point guard Ricky Rubio for what is expected to be at least the first six weeks of the regular season while he recovers from a torn ACL in his left knee.
