Rudy Gobert Rudy Gobert posts 14 rebounds, four blocked shots
Sun, Jan 4, 2026, 2:25 PM
Rudy Gobert amassed 18 points (8-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds and four blocked shots in Sunday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: After a slow start to the season, Gobert has kicked things up a few notches in recent weeks. And that's thanks mainly to increased production in the rebound, steal and blocked shot categories. Over the past two weeks, Gobert has averaged 11.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.6 blocks per appearance, providing top-40 per-game value in eight-cat formats. While his season-long fantasy value remains low, there's light at the end of the tunnel for those who have Gobert rostered. |

Julius Randle Julius Randle scores leisurely 22 points vs. WAS
Sun, Jan 4, 2026, 2:18 PM
Julius Randle accounted for 22 points (9-of-15 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, four assists and one three-pointer in Sunday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: After shooting 50 percent or better from the field in each of his first ten appearances, Randle had not accomplished that in at least four consecutive games before this current stretch. Shooting 51.5 percent from the field, Randle has offered third-round per-game value in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. That's one round better than his value for the season to date. The Timberwolves play four games in Week 12, starting with the Heat on Tuesday. |

Anthony Edwards Edwards goes off for 33 points in win over Heat
Sat, Jan 3, 2026, 1:39 PM
Anthony Edwards piled up a game-high 33 points (10-of-19 FGs, 11-of-14 FTs), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 38 minutes on Saturday, leading the Timberwolves to a convincing 125-115 win over the Heat.
Analysis: Edwards knocked down just 2-of-8 from beyond the arc but got to the free throw line 14 times while recording his fourth 30-point performance in his last six games since December 23. The 24-year-old franchise cornerstone became the first player in league history to reach 1,200 career three-pointers before his 25th birthday. He's delivered top-15 overall fantasy value this season, averaging 29.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.8 blocks over 28 games. The Timberwolves have a quick turnaround with a matchup against the Wizards on Sunday before kicking off a four-game week facing the Heat, Spurs and Cavaliers twice. |

Naz Reid Reid delivers 29 points off the bench in victory
Sat, Jan 3, 2026, 1:38 PM
Naz Reid went off for 29 points (10-of-15 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 25 minutes in Saturday's win over the Heat.
Analysis: Reid played a central role helping Minnesota build up a 19-point lead by the late stages of the fourth quarter, supplying 20 second-half points. The 26-year-old big man has been hot-and-cold from a scoring standpoint but he's registered at least 29 points in two of his last three games. He should be able to take advantage of an extremely favorable matchup against the Wizards on Sunday. |

Sat, Jan 3, 2026, 1:36 PM
Julius Randle piled up 23 points (10-of-17 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Saturday's win over the Heat.
Analysis: Randle notched his 10th double-double of the season as the Timberwolves rebounded from an ugly loss to the Hawks earlier this week.

Julius Randle Julius Randle tallies 19/7/2/1 line vs. Atlanta
Wed, Dec 31, 2025, 11:27 AM
Julius Randle finished with 19 points (7-of-13 FGs), seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and three three-pointers against the Hawks on Wednesday.
Analysis: It was an ugly game overall for Minnesota, but Randle joined Anthony Edwards (30 points) as the only starters to score in double figures. It wasn't a spectacular outing for Randle, but he was one of the more productive Wolves in this game. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to carry over his assist production from their last game. He'll look to help Minnesota get back on track in Miami on Saturday. |

Anthony Edwards Edwards drops 30 points in blowout loss to Hawks
Wed, Dec 31, 2025, 11:24 AM
Anthony Edwards led the Timberwolves with 30 points (10-of-18 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers in a 126-102 loss to the Hawks on Wednesday.
Analysis: Edwards was able to have a big night, but he didn't get much help from his team in the homecoming game. Only two other players scored in double figures for Minnesota, and one of them was Johnny Juzang, who only played the final seven minutes of this game. Edwards has been consistently dominant this season, and the Wolves haven't been on the wrong end of blowouts often this year. Edwards will look to carry this production over into a matchup with Miami on Saturday. |

Naz Reid Reid scores season-high 33 in win over Bulls
Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 4:49 PM
Naz Reid exploded for a season-high 33 points (11-of-18 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), seven rebounds and three assists over 26 minutes off the bench, leading the Timberwolves to a 136-101 blowout win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Reid was a force of nature in the second half, going off for 23 points on 7-of-10 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point range. The 26-year-old big main drained a season-high six triples in this one while also chipping in seven boards and three assists in a stat sheet-stuffing effort. He's capable of delivering outstanding fantasy value when he's feeling it from downtown. He's a must-start for the remainder of the week when the Timberwolves face the Hawks, Heat and Wizards. |

Julius Randle Randle dishes out 14 helpers in win over Bulls
Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 4:47 PM
Julius Randle contributed 17 points (6-of-11 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, 14 assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Monday's lopsided win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Randle recorded the unconventional triple-double while Minnesota kicked off a four-game road trip by dishing out a season-high 14 helpers, reaching double-digit assists for the second straight contest. The 31-year-old's transition to a facilitator role has driven down his scoring numbers lately but fantasy managers will certainly take the uptick in the assist department. |

The 24-year-old fantasy superstar was able to sit out most of the fourth quarter as Minnesota lead by as many as 41 points in this one. |

Analysis: Coming off his sixth 40-point performance of the season, Edwards was one of the few bright spots in a relatively forgettable performance for Minnesota.

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (shoulder) questionable Saturday
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 12:23 PM
Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards (shoulder) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Edwards tweaked his right shoulder during Thursday's loss to the Nuggets but remained in the game. His availability may affect Mike Conley's (rest), who is also questionable. If Edwards can play, don't be surprised if Conley gets the night off. If he can't, there's a good chance that Conley will be the replacement in the starting lineup. |

Rudy Gobert Rudy Gobert secures 12 boards, swats six shots
Thu, Dec 25, 2025, 7:50 PM
Rudy Gobert finished with nine points (4-of-7 FGs), 12 rebounds and six blocks against the Nuggets on Thursday.
Analysis: Though Gobert finished one point shy of a double-double, he was still able to have a productive fantasy night in what has been a strong season for him. Of course, Nikola Jokic's monster night will take away from what Gobert did, but it was solid for fantasy managers before he fouled out in overtime. The former Defensive Player of the Year recorded double-digit rebounds for a seventh straight game and set a new season high for blocks. |

Julius Randle Julius Randle tallies 32/7/6/3/1 line vs. Denver
Thu, Dec 25, 2025, 7:48 PM
Julius Randle lit up the Nuggets with 32 points (12-of-22 FGs), seven rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and two three-pointers on Thursday.
Analysis: Randle has cooled off after an excellent start to the year, but he's certainly still capable of big scoring nights, as he proved in this game. This was his sixth 30-point game of the season, though it was his first since Nov. 19, and the other four came during Minnesota's first eight games of the season. Randle had scored 25 points in the game before this, so he'll look to carry this momentum into a matchup with the Nets on Saturday. |

Analysis: Edwards started this game off hot and ended the first quarter with 14 points. He cooled off after that until the fourth quarter. He scored 13 points over the final seven minutes, including a contested three-pointer from the corner to tie the game and force overtime. He helped Minnesota score the first nine points of overtime, but the game shifted Denver's way after that. Edwards scored 11 points in the extra frame prior to an ejection that came after he disagreed with a pivotal call. Edwards matched his season high for scoring in this game it what will go down as a disappointing loss for the Wolves. |
