Flip Saunders, President and head coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves, couldn't have been more clear in his message to Jerry Zgoda of the Minnesota Star Tribune:
Flip was adamant about this before the game: "We're not shopping Budinger."

Budinger's name was rumored to be on the block after reports surfaced as to his apparent availability.
Budinger is a useful player when healthy but his stint in Minnesota has been marred by injuries. In two seasons with the Timberwolves, Budinger has averaged 7.7 points per game.
