Rick Adelman returned to the Timberwolves after his hiatus on Monday and declined to talk specifically about what was bothering his wife.

On Tuesday, Adelman says he was urged by her to be more open about the situation. He says his wife has been seeking treatment for the past three weeks, but doctors still don’t know what is causing them.

Rick Adelman missed 11 games to be with her. He plans to coach on Wednesday night against the Clippers.
