Minnesota Timberwolves

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's encounter with the Sacramento Kings. The 22-year-old tweaked his ankle in Tuesday's win over the San Antonio Spurs and carried an injury designation ahead of Wednesday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies. However, he still played and scored a game-high 34 points in 40 minutes. At any rate, it would certainly be surprising if Edwards doesn't play, but anything is possible. If he can't suit up, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, averaging 9.3 points, 3.2 assists, and 1.1 steals in 16 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, would warrant streaming consideration in all formats.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup against Memphis. Gobert played with a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's win over the Spurs. He was on the court for 39 minutes against San Antonio. Should the center minutes be limited, Naz Reid, as a power forward in the front court alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns, will fill the void against a weak and depleted Memphis lineup.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) will play on Wednesday against Memphis. He tweaked his ankle during Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, although he still logged 33 minutes and scored a game-high 34 points. However, the 22-year-old is one of the most durable players in the National Basketball Association, so it would have taken a lot to keep him off the floor. Of course, Edwards is a must-start in all fantasy leagues. But he's averaged only 17.3 points in three meetings versus the Grizzlies this year, meaning he may not be an ideal DFS option.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's game versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Edwards injured his left ankle in Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs. Luckily for the Timberwolves, Ant-Man isn't dealing with a significant injury. Nickeil Alexander-Walker has the potential to slot into the team's starting lineup as he's posted an average of 9.3 points, 3.2 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers, and 1.1 steals across 16 games while a starter in this years campaign.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have listed center Rudy Gobert (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies. Gobert fought through a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, but his status is uncertain for the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back. It's worth noting the 31-year-old interior presence logged 39 minutes Tuesday, so if the T-Wolves elect to give Gobert the night off, expect Naz Reid to start at power forward in the frontcourt alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns against a depleted Memphis squad that ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed to the position, per DraftKings scoring.
