Minnesota Timberwolves minority owner Alex Rodriguez likes to party, but this time a party is costing his organization $250,000, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
The Timberwolves were fined $250,000 by the NBA on Monday after the team held an offseason practice outside Minnesota. Under NBA rules, teams cannot organize or pay for offseason practice or workout sessions outside their market. The Timberwolves were fined for holding a team event in Miami in September.
A-Rod hosted players at his house.
