Hoiberg's lottery good luck charm E-mail
Written by SG

Wolves assistant GM Fred Hoiberg is taking a stuffed bear with him for good luck in Tuesday’s draft lottery.
 
The bear belongs to a 12-year-old Brooklyn Park boy whom Hoiberg has befriended the past two seasons. The boy is a big Wolves fan who has had more than 100 operational procedures — a few big, including a liver transplant, and many small — and he always takes the bear with him into surgery.
 
The boy, Matthew Gamber, attended a game two seasons ago at Hoiberg’s invitation and the Wolves ended Phoenix’s 17-game winning streak that night. He attended three games last season — two against Phoenix and one against Utah — and the Wolves won them all, in a 22-victory season.
