Alex Rodriguez cheers on Minnesota Timberwolves all the way from Tokyo
Alex Rodriguez follows a pretty hectic daily schedule. The 49-year-old businessman often jets off to a variety of places when duty calls. At the moment, he finds himself on the opposite side of the globe in Tokyo, the bustling capital of Japan.
Despite being in pretty much the opposite timezone to the United States, A-Rod made sure to keep up with his beloved Minnesota Timberwolves, as they played the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.
"Twolves on no matter where I am," Rodriguez captioned his story.
Eventually, the Timberwolves ended up victorious in a close game, winning 120-117 at the Target Center. Julius Randle had a great game, putting up 35 points with seven assists, while superstar Anthony Edwards also impressed with 24 points and six assists.
A-Rod owns a minority stake in the T-wolves and their WNBA counterparts, the Minnesota Lynx. Naturally, A-Rod's family and loved ones have shown their support for the Timberwolves.
