Ayo Dosunmu
Ayo Dosunmu posts 17/10/8 line vs. Portland
Fri, Mar 20, 2026, 5:20 PM
Ayo Dosunmu amassed 17 points (6-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 10 rebounds, eight assists and three three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Once again starting for Anthony Edwards, Dosunmu finished Friday's defeat two assists shy of a triple-double. Rostered in 32 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has provided fourth-round value in eight-cat formats. With the Timberwolves visiting the Celtics on Sunday, there's one more opportunity for fantasy managers to get value out of Dosunmu during Week 21.
Bones Hyland
Bones Hyland records three triples, two steals
Fri, Mar 20, 2026, 5:19 PM
Bones Hyland produced 17 points (5-of-11 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), two steals and three three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Hyland may not have moved into the starting lineup following Anthony Edwards' knee injury, but there have been more opportunities for him to shine off the bench. He's scored 17 points or more in all three games that Edwards has missed, making Bones a worthwhile streamer for managers competing in points leagues.
Rudy Gobert
Rudy Gobert drops 18/15/1/2/1 line vs. Portland
Fri, Mar 20, 2026, 5:18 PM
Rudy Gobert accumulated 18 points (7-of-14 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), 15 rebounds, one assist, two steals and one blocked shot in Friday's loss to the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Gobert has recorded a double-double in back-to-back games for the first time in nearly a month, good news for those rostering the 7-foot-1 center. While Anthony Edwards' absence did not result in a significant increase in shot attempts for Gobert on Tuesday against the Suns, he's put up a total of 26 shots in the last two. And given where most of his shots are taken, that's an excellent development for Gobert and fantasy managers.
Naz Reid
Naz Reid (ankle) downgraded to out vs. Portland
Fri, Mar 20, 2026, 12:58 PM
Minnesota Timberwolves
Naz Reid (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Reid will miss a second consecutive game with a sprained right ankle. His continued absence means more playing time for Kyle Anderson and Terrence Shannon Jr. The latter is worth a look for managers seeking assists, as Anderson racked up six in Wednesday's win over the Jazz.

Minnesota Timberwolves
Naz Reid (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Reid did not play in Wednesday's win over the Jazz after spraining his right ankle the night prior. Kyle Anderson and Terrence Shannon Jr. saw their minutes increase in his absence, with the former recording six assists and the latter three steals. Neither is a must-stream player if Reid remains out.

Ayo Dosunmu posts 23/9/6/3 stat line vs. Utah
Wed, Mar 18, 2026, 5:41 PM
Ayo Dosunmu finished Wednesday's win over the Jazz with 23 points (7-of-13 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, six assists, three steals and three three-pointers.
Analysis: After a solid showing in his first start for the injured Anthony Edwards on Tuesday, Dosunmu was even better in Wednesday's win over the Jazz. He totaled 42 points, 14 rebounds, eight assists and three steals in wins over Phoenix and Utah, and he qualifies as a must-add player with Minnesota playing two more games in Week 21. Also worth a look, especially in deeper leagues, is Bones Hyland, who chipped in with 18 points, three rebounds, two assists and three three-pointers on Wednesday.
Rudy Gobert
Rudy Gobert records 21 points, 12 rebounds
Wed, Mar 18, 2026, 5:40 PM
Julius Randle accounted for 21 points (9-of-12 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 12 rebounds, one steal and two blocks in Wednesday's win over the Jazz.
Analysis: While Gobert's offensive production did not receive much of a boost in the first game the Timberwolves played after losing Anthony Edwards (knee), but he did grab 19 rebounds. In the second game on Wednesday, he provided excellent value as a scorer and rebounder against the lottery-bound Jazz. The Timberwolves have two more games in Week 21, starting with the Trail Blazers on Friday.
Julius Randle
Julius Randle posts 21 points, eight assists
Wed, Mar 18, 2026, 5:40 PM
Julius Randle tallied 21 points (7-of-10 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), one rebound, eight assists, four steals and one three-pointer in Wednesday's win over the Jazz.
Analysis: In the two games the Timberwolves have played since losing Anthony Edwards to a knee injury, Randle has totaled 53 points on 17-of-27 shooting from the field. Against the Jazz, he also recorded eight assists and four steals, providing excellent value in those categories. At this rate, Randle is capable of delivering some key wins to fantasy managers looking to win their league title.
Naz Reid

Timberwolves PR
Naz Reid (ankle) has been ruled out against the Jazz on Wednesday.
Analysis: Reid was initially listed as questionable on the second night of this back-to-back, but he has now been downgraded to out. He briefly exited Tuesday's game, but he was able to return to finish it out, so this shouldn't be a lengthy absence for him. Joan Beringer should fill out the backup center minutes.

NBA Injury Report
Naz Reid (ankle) is questionable to play against the Jazz on Wednesday.
Analysis: Reid briefly exited from Tuesday's game with an ankle injury but was able to return to finish it out. However, that injury could keep him sidelined against Utah. Joan Beringer was recalled from the G League, which isn't a good sign for Reid's potential availability. Beringer would fill in the backup center minutes if Reid is out.
Bones Hyland
Bones Hyland scores 22 points off bench
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 5:37 PM
Bones Hyland provided a boost off the bench with 22 points (8-of-14 FGs), two rebounds, five assists, one steal and four three-pointers against the Suns on Tuesday.
Analysis: Hyland didn't move into the starting lineup with Anthony Edwards (knee) set to miss at least one week, but he did see extra minutes off the bench and took full advantage of the opportunity. This was his fourth 20-point game of the season, and he fell just short of his season-high 23-point performance in January. Hyland played 29 minutes in this game and should continue to play a larger role with Edwards sidelined, giving him some upside as a streamer, though this type of production may not come consistently.
Rudy Gobert
Rudy Gobert matches season-high 19 rebounds
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 5:33 PM
Rudy Gobert controlled the paint on Tuesday and contributed nine points (4-of-7 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), 19 rebounds, one assist and four blocks against the Suns.
Analysis: Gobert didn't do much scoring, but he matched his season high for rebounds and had a solid game as a shot blocker. This came two days after he was held to two points and seven rebounds against the Thunder, so this was a strong response. Gobert can't be relied on for much outside of rebounds, blocks and field goal percentage at this point of his career, and it hasn't come consistently, but he is still capable of dominating down low.
Julius Randle
Randle stays hot with another 32-point outing
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 5:25 PM
Julius Randle led the Timberwolves with 32 points (10-of-17 FGs, 10-of-13 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, two steals, two three-pointers and six turnovers in a 116-104 win over the Suns on Tuesday.
Analysis: Randle struggled coming out of the All-Star break, but he has been excellent over their last two game, scoring 32 points in each. He has been on fire, and they'll need him to keep it up with Anthony Edwards set to be sidelined for at least a few more games with a knee injury. Randle will be the focal point of the offense until Edwards returns which could lead to more outings like this one, especially with the Jazz up next on the schedule on Wednesday.
Ayo Dosunmu
Ayo Dosunmu scores 19 points as starter
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 5:18 PM
Ayo Dosunmu started on Tuesday and contributed 19 points (9-of-17 FGs), five rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer against the Suns.
Analysis: Dosunmu moved into the starting lineup with Anthony Edwards (knee) set to miss one-to-two weeks with a knee injury. His first game was productive, and he's currently rostered in just 26 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Even if Edwards only misses the rest of this week, that will be three more games with Dosunmu as a starter, making him worth rostering as long as Edwards is sidelined.
Ayo Dosunmu
Ayo Dosunmu starting in place of Anthony Edwards
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 1:35 PM
Timberwolves PR
Ayo Dosunmu, Donte DiVincenzo, Jaden McDaniels, Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert will start against the Suns on Tuesday.
Analysis: With Anthony Edwards (knee) set to miss one-to-two weeks, Dosunmu will replace him in the starting unit. This will be Dosunmu's first start for Minnesota, but he has been solid for them and should be considered a must-roster player as long as Edwards is out.
Naz Reid
Naz Reid (shoulder) good to go vs. Suns
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 9:26 AM
NBA Injury Report
Naz Reid (shoulder) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Suns.
Analysis: Reid picked up the shoulder injury in Sunday's loss to OKC, but it won't cost him any time. With Anthony Edwards sidelined, Reid could see a boost in usage and offensive responsibilities.
Anthony Edwards
Shams: Anthony Edwards (knee) out 1-2 weeks
Tue, Mar 17, 2026, 9:22 AM
Shams Charania
According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Anthony Edwards (knee) will be re-evaluated in 1-2 weeks.
Analysis: Edwards is dealing with right knee inflammation, and his absence comes at the worst time possible for fantasy managers. With Edwards sidelined, the Timberwolves will likely turn to Ayo Dosunmu as the next man up, with Bones Hyland logging additional minutes. Dosunmu had standalone value with Edwards on the court, but he's now a priority pickup.
Naz Reid
Naz Reid (shoulder) questionable vs. Phoenix
Mon, Mar 16, 2026, 1:04 PM
NBA Injury Report
Naz Reid (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: Reid injured his right shoulder during Sunday's loss to the Thunder. With Anthony Edwards (knee) already ruled out, the Timberwolves will need more production from Reid if he's allowed to play.
Anthony Edwards
Anthony Edwards (knee) ruled out vs. Phoenix
Mon, Mar 16, 2026, 1:01 PM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Edwards (knee) is out for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: Edwards has played through a sore right knee the last few games, but he will not do so on Tuesday. His absence opens up opportunities for Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland, with one likely moving into the starting lineup. Also, the Timberwolves will need more production from Julius Randle and Jaden McDaniels.
Donte DiVincenzo
Donte DiVincenzo tallies 16 points, nine rebounds
Sun, Mar 15, 2026, 9:45 AM
Donte DiVincenzo produced 16 points (6-of-9 FTs), nine rebounds, one assist and four three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Thunder.
Analysis: Like Julius Randle, DiVincenzo entered Sunday's game in a slump. He totaled 20 points in four games, shooting 8-of-29 from the field. The Timberwolves guard snapped out of his funk in Oklahoma City, shooting 4-of-7 from beyond the arc. DiVincenzo added nine rebounds for good measure, but the points and three-pointers are why most fantasy managers held out hope that he would turn things around.
