Chris Finch criticizes officials after LaMelo Ball fouls out against Spurs

In a disappointing outing against the Spurs on October 31, LaMelo Ball fouled out after just 20 minutes, contributing to the Timberwolves' 121-111 loss. Head coach Chris Finch expressed frustration over officiating, claiming officials allowed excessive contact on Ball while whistling him for minor infractions. Finch defended Ball's performance but emphasized the need for him to manage fouls better. Ball's foul trouble compounded the Wolves' struggles, especially with teammate Anthony Edwards sidelined. The Timberwolves now hold a 4-3 record and look to rebound against the Bucks on November 3.
