Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (thumb) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Pacers. He has a laceration on his right thumb, although it's unknown how severe the Injury is. With the postseason right around the corner, the team may take the cautious approach by keeping him off the floor to avoid further damage. If that's the case, Julius Randle, amassing a team-high 20 points in Friday's win over the Pelicans, should see an uptick in production. Jaden McDaniels, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Donte DiVincenzo figure to also see more scoring opportunities.


Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Mike Conley (rest) will exit the lineup for Sunday's tilt against the Utah Jazz. He will skip the meeting with his former team for rest purposes. Minnesota also has a game scheduled for Monday, and Conley is likely to return to action against the Indiana Pacers. Donte DiVincenzo will take over from Conley in the first unit against Utah. DiVincenzo has been very effective for the Timberwolves in a starting role, averaging 15.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.3 steals, with 43.1 percent shooting from three-point range.


Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) will be in the lineup on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets. The French big man is dealing with a lingering back injury, but the team has upgraded his status from questionable to available ahead of Wednesday's tip-off. On Sunday against the San Antonio Spurs, Gobert returned from a 10-game absence, posting 18 points, eight rebounds, and two steals in 20 minutes. Despite the long layoff, Gobert showed no signs of rust, but he saw only limited minutes, which may happen again on Wednesday night.


Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Gobert made his return to the court on Sunday after missing the previous 10 games due to a lower back injury. He registered 16 points, eight rebounds, and two assists across 20 minutes of action during that game. The Wolves are likely going to ease him back into his normal role. If he sits on Wednesday, Naz Reid and Luka Garza would likely see increased roles in the rotation. Reid has been a strong fantasy option all season long, but would have increased value if Gobert is unable to play.


Minnesota Timberwolves center Luka Garza (ankle) is available ahead of Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Garza has been cleared to play after being listed as questionable due to a sprained left ankle. Fellow big man Rudy Gobert (back) is returning on Sunday after missing the last 10 games. That being said, Garza will probably fall out of the rotation or play only a handful of minutes with Gobert returning. There is no need to stream Garza with Gobert and Naz Reid healthy.
