Arizona State sophomore guard James Harden did fly into Minneapolis and will work out privately for the Wolves this afternoon before David Kahn holds a 3:30 news conference to talk about yesterday’s trade.

All the other Wolves workouts have included media availability. This one is closed.

Still curious if the Wolves don’t work something with the Thunder with that 18th pick to get to 3 to ensure they get the guy they want, which could be Tyreke Evans before Sacramento gets a chance to take him.

Thunder would get an extra pick and still get Harden.

Also am trying to learn whether this sale of the No. 28 pick to the Knicks for a reported $3 million is done. Hearing it’s not a done deal yet. I thought I heard David Kahn say some time ago that he’s not interested in selling picks, but last I checked, Glen Taylor is still the boss.

UPDATE: The 3 pm press conference (moved from 3:30) can be seen on Timberwolves.com
