Minnesota Timberwolves DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) will play on Tuesday versus the Clippers. He tweaked his ankle a few games ago. However, despite holding a place on the injury report, Edwards hasn't missed any games because of it. The 22-year-old has played well in three meetings with Los Angeles this season, averaging 27.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.7 steals, meaning fantasy managers should feel more enthusiastic about having him in their lineups. Yet, Edwards' presence means less work for Nickeil Alexander-Walker, who would have seen streaming attention had he been a member of the starting lineup.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Clippers. The 22-year-old tweaked his ankle a few games ago and has been listed on the injury report since. However, it hasn't cost him any time. That said, barring a significant setback, Edwards will be out there on Tuesday. But if he's not, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 18 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, would likely remain with the first five.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers. He has been dealing with right hamstring tightness, so he sat out on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) remains out for the foreseeable future, and if Gobert misses another contest, Naz Reid should continue to see a significant uptick in production. Reid had 25 points, shooting 5-for-10 from deep, and four blocks versus the Lakers, meaning he's a must-start in all fantasy formats, but even more so if Gobert is sidelined again.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (ankle) is available ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Edwards appears ready to play after being listed as questionable earlier in the day. That is good news for the Wolves who are shorthanded for this game. Edwards has been red-hot lately and that should continue during Sunday's game. Fantasy managers should make sure to get him in their lineup before tip-off.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The big man will sit this game out after being listed as questionable coming into the contest. Naz Reid will be asked to pick up the slack with Karl Anthony-Towns (knee) sidelined as well. Reid is going to be forced to play big minutes, which makes him an appealing streaming option for Sunday's slate.
