Glen was banned by the NBA for a year in 2000 after signing American former professional basketball player Joseph Leynard Smith to a secret contract.
He had a falling out with NBA legend Kevin Garnett in 2015, because Kevin mistakenly believed that he could become a minority owner of the Timberwolves following his retirement; Glen didn’t allow this to happen, and even though Kevin spent 14 years playing for the team, he still refuses to have his jersey retired.
After purchasing “Star Tribune” in 2014, Glen revealed that the newspaper would become less liberal.
He’s a huge fan of American actor Mel Gibson, and some of his favorite movies include “Forever Young”, “Father Stu” and “Braveheart”.
