"Do I think it's fair? No. Absolutely (not)," Adelman said. "I don't know the reasoning. They don't tell you the reasoning. I don't know the reasoning why two games. They haven't said anything. You've just got to move on."
The 23-year-old Love, who recently signed a four-year extension worth more than $60 million, has been barking at the officials most of the season.
Adelman said he saw Love get upset with no-calls on two straight possessions before the run-in with Scola "and it led to the incident."
"You've got to play through," Adelman said. "Play with emotion, but you've got to play through it and not let it affect what happens on the court."
Adelman didn't say who would start in Love's place against the Kings, but Derrick Williams and Anthony Tolliver figure to see a lot more time. Williams, the No. 2 overall pick, has had a tough time getting settled into a role with the Wolves.
He has played just 37 minutes combined in the last four games and tweeted on Saturday "anybody ever felt like a caged lion?"
"I guess it's just patience and hopefully I pick up (Adelman's) trust and have the ball in my hands more often," Williams said. "I kind of feel like it's just a lack of confidence, not in myself, but him in me being in that position. I've just got to earn his trust."
Separately, the Timberwolves sent rookie G Malcolm Lee to Sioux Falls of the NBDL for what essentially is a rehab assignment. The second-round pick has not played this year after having surgery on a torn meniscus in his left knee.
