Some Minnesota Timberwolves traveled to the Northland Friday for a good cause.
The pros took a break from basketball to help build a home for a Cloquet family through Habitat for Humanity.
Forward Ryan Gomes talked about how much he enjoys giving back to the people of Minnesota.
"This is a wonderful thing; this is something that they're going to remember. This is going to be the home that they live in for years to come. So we're a part of this wonderful day and when they go into their homes they'll remember us and we'll remember them, because this is something that is going to be special and dear to their heart and something that means a lot to them."
Gomes says he likes working with the electric drill, but stayed away from the hammer to avoid any broken thumbs.
The Timberwolves' visit was a surprise to the lucky Cloquet family.
