The St. Paul Pioneer Press is reporting that forward Mark Madsen, who has been out since January 7 with a fractured left thumb, has been cleared to begin practicing with the team. He is expected to return to practice on Tuesday, the Wolves' first one after the All-Star break. He is averaging two points and 3.1 rebounds a game this season.</div> Source Are TWolve fans ready for the "Human Can of Red Bull?"

    I think this will be great for the team. I haven't thought about it until now, but him being gone could have been the lack of energy all of those games.

    Now with McHale having everyone pumped up, and Masden back ; I see a run at the Playoffs.

    I missed Mad Dogg. He bring so much energy out onto the court. The only problem is he plays the center spot, a spot where he is too underszied to play, but it's not like he's a back up or anything. He comes out with emotion and bring the energy. That's what I like about him. Good to see he's healed and that he is set to make his return to the court.

    I also missed him. We are lacking energy and Mark can bring a lot of that. Every team needs a guy who can hustle and give everything they've got on the court. Even if he doesn't have any talent, he still is a important part of the team. The only problem he has other than talent, is he is undersized as CUSA said but he can use his size as a advantage against some bigger centers. He is a Mchale type player because he is big man that always runs down the floor at full speed and maybe get a easy fastbreak point. That's what Mchale has been trying to tell the his big men.

    Hopefully he can return on the floor soon and make a impact with his energy.

    It's good to see him back. He is a breathe of fresh air.

    I have been worried about him coming back.
