Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 7:19 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Edwards (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Edwards has now missed eight of Minnesota's last ten games, which is a major concern for the Timberwolves heading into the postseason. Mike Conley is the likely replacement in the starting lineup, but Bones Hyland offers a higher streaming ceiling when Edwards sits. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee) questionable vs. Charlotte
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 6:24 PM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Edwards (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Edwards struggled in Friday's loss to the 76ers, shooting 3-of-15 from the field. If he's unable to play, Mike Conley would start, but this does more for the fantasy values of Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland. |

Julius Randle Julius Randle scores 21 points vs. Philadelphia
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 3:38 PM
Julius Randle tallied 21 points (9-of-15 FGs, 2-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Friday's loss to the 76ers.
Analysis: Randle was the lone Timberwolves starter to shoot 50 percent or better from the field on Friday. And after struggling for a significant portion of March, he appears to be rounding into form. Randle has scored at least 21 points in four of his last five appearances, and he's made at least 60 percent of his shot attempts in each of his last three. That has been a positive development for fantasy managers, who will get one more game out of Randle in Week 23 on Sunday against the Hornets. |

Bones Hyland Bones Hyland hits five threes, scores 21 points
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 3:37 PM
Bones Hyland accounted for 21 points (7-of-14 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, three assists, two steals and five three-pointers in Friday's loss to the 76ers.
Analysis: In the four games he played after scoring 23 points in a March 22 win over the Celtics, Hyland totaled 32 points on 13-of-43 shooting from the field. Even though it occurred in a loss, Bones needed a night like Friday to get untracked. With Anthony Edwards still banged up and Jaden McDaniels (knee) week-to-week, Hyland's offensive contributions have added importance as the Timberwolves fight for seeding in the Western Conference standings. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (illness) struggles in return
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 3:37 PM
Anthony Edwards (illness) finished Friday's loss to the 76ers with eight points (3-of-15 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, two steals and one blocked shot.
Analysis: Back in the Timberwolves' lineup after a one-game absence, Edwards had a brutal night shooting the basketball. He missed all seven of his three-point attempts while shooting less than 40 percent from two. Give the 76ers credit for their work defensively, but this was a subpar performance from Edwards. He'll look to bounce back on Sunday when the Timberwolves host the Hornets. |

Anthony Edwards Ant, Ayo, Donte, Julius, Rudy to start Fri. vs PHI
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 12:48 PM
Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, Rudy Gobert, Julius Randle and Ayo Dosunmu will start against the 76ers on Friday.
Analysis: Edwards (knee, illness) is back and will start for the Wolves following a one-game absence. The superstar guard will step in as Minnesota's clear-cut best fantasy option, though Dosunmu, Gobert, and Randle all provide different levels of value. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) upgraded to active
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 11:29 AM
Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) is available for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Edwards is back after sitting out Thursday's loss to the Pistons. His return will push Mike Conley to the bench, eliminating what little streaming value the veteran point guard possesses. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) questionable Fri
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 8:38 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the 76ers.
Analysis: Edwards returned from a six-game absence on Monday but was forced to sit out Thursday's matchup with the Pistons. He's got a chance to return on the second leg of Minnesota's back-to-back set, but if Edwards is sidelined again, Mike Conley, Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland would all benefit from a fantasy standpoint. |

Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu records 19 points, five rebounds
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:35 PM
Ayo Dosunmu tallied 19 points (7-of-15 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, four assists, two steals, one block and two three-pointers in Thursday's loss to the Pistons.
Analysis: Dosunmu continues to provide solid value as a starter, having scored 17 points or more in each of his last seven appearances. Thursday's stat line was complete, and the Timberwolves' guard has been responsible for at least three combined steals and blocks in three straight and four of his last five appearances. As long as he's healthy and Jaden McDaniels (knee) remains out, Dosunmu is close to a must-roster player in 12-team leagues for the remainder of Week 23. |

Naz Reid Naz Reid hits four triples, scores 19 points
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:05 PM
Naz Reid accounted for 19 points (6-of-16 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and four three-pointers in Thursday's loss to the Pistons.
Analysis: Having scored 20 points on 8-of-29 shooting in his prior two appearances, Reid needed to clean up some things on Thursday. He once again shot below 50 percent from the field, but the Timberwolves' reserve was a respectable 4-of-9 from three. Add in the rebounds, assists and blocks, and this was a solid effort overall from Reid. Minnesota plays two more games in Week 23, starting with the 76ers on Friday. |

Julius Randle Julius Randle scores game-high 27 points vs. DET
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:04 PM
Julius Randle amassed 27 points (9-of-15 FGs, 7-of-10 FTs), six rebounds, six assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Thursday's loss to the Pistons.
Analysis: Give Randle credit for stepping up with Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) ruled out. The 27 points were the most he's had in a game since dropping 32 in a March 17 win over the Suns, and the veteran forward scored efficiently in Detroit. That's a far cry from Randle's performance in Minnesota's March 28 loss to the Pistons, when he scored 11 points on 2-of-13 shooting from the field. He'll look to build on Thursday's effort in the Timberwolves' final two games of Week 23. |

Mike Conley Mike Conley scores 14 first-half points vs. DET
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:04 PM
Mike Conley finished Thursday's loss to the Pistons with 14 points (4-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, two steals and four three-pointers.
Analysis: Conley appeared to have stumbled upon the Fountain of Youth in the first half of Thursday's game, putting up 14 points. The Pistons were more attentive defensively after halftime, and the veteran point guard did not score again. Minnesota has games on Friday and Sunday, but Conley has not played both games of a back-to-back since late January. If Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) can play on Friday in Philadelphia, Conley will head to the bench. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) downgraded to out
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 11:47 AM
Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards (knee, illness) is out for Thursday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis: Initially questionable for Thursday's game, Edwards is now out. Mike Conley will get another start, with Edwards' absence also raising the fantasy ceilings of Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee) questionable vs. Detroit
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 11:23 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Edwards (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis: Edwards played 23 minutes in his return to the court on Monday, with Mike Conley making another start due to ânature callingâ for the Timberwolves' star. If Edwards can't play against the Pistons, Conley would get another start. This also raises the fantasy ceiling for Ayo Dosunmu, who is replacing Jaden McDaniels (knee) in the starting lineup. |

Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu logs 18/15/12 triple-double vs. Dallas
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 5:30 PM
Ayo Dosunmu finished Monday's win over the Mavericks with 18 points (8-of-13 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 15 rebounds, 12 assists, three steals and one three-pointer.
Analysis: Dosunmu showed off his versatility throughout Monday's contest. As a scorer, he did most of his work inside the arc before finishing as Minnesota's second-highest scorer. He set a new season-high in rebounds, which led the Timberwolves. And when he wasn't scoring, it was likely because of how impactful a facilitator he was, as he reached double figures in assists for the first time this season. Donsunmu collected a few steals to sweeten his final stat line, and even though a second consecutive triple-double is unlikely, he will have chances to keep making an impact while Jaden McDaniels is out of the lineup with an injury. |

Julius Randle Julius Randle puts up 24 points in blowout win
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 5:22 PM
Julius Randle amassed 24 points (9-of-14 FGs, 3-of-7 FTs), three rebounds, four assists and three three-pointers in Monday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: Randle was one of several Timberwolves players to land good production against Dallas on Monday. In the one-sided affair, the veteran forward did work as a scorer both inside and outside the arc, while also contributing as a passer. He left some points at the free-throw line but was still able to finish as Minnesota's only player to reach the 20-point mark. Randle will look to secure another solid performance against the Pistons on Thursday. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards returns, adds 17 points off bench
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 5:18 PM
Anthony Edwards tallied 17 points (7-of-13 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), two rebounds, four assists and two three-pointers in Monday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: Edwards didn't start Monday's game, despite initially being tabbed as a starter in his return from a six-game absence. He eventually checked in off the bench and produced in his 23 minutes during the 30-point victory. Edwards shot the ball efficiently and made some plays as a passer, too, showing that it likely won't take long for him to get right back in the swing of things. He'll have seven more games to get comfortable before the regular season ends, but fantasy managers are hoping it takes far less time than that. |

Anthony Edwards Ant, Rudy, Ayo, Donte, Julius starting vs. Dallas
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 2:13 PM
NBA Starting Lineups
Anthony Edwards, Rudy Gobert, Ayo Dosunmu, Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo will start against the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Edwards will return to the Wolves' starting lineup in his first game back from a knee injury. He'll join three of the usual starters and Dosunmu, who is making a spot start against the Mavericks thanks to Jaden McDaniels' knee injury. Minnesota, the fifth seed in the Western Conference, currently has the same record as Houston, which occupies the sixth seed. Each game down the stretch of the regular season could have an impact on the playoff picture ??" including Monday's contest. |

Anthony Edwards Anthony Edwards (knee) set to return vs. Dallas
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 1:10 PM
Ryan Eichten
Anthony Edwards (knee) is available to play on Monday against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Edwards' return from a six-game absence will be a huge boost for the Timberwolves, who are still battling for seeding in the Western Conference. The versatile shooting guard is averaging a career-high 29.5 points per game this season on very good 49.2/40.2/79.6 shooting splits. His return comes at an even more important time for the Wolves, following Jaden McDaniels' knee injury. Obviously, Edwards should be a lock in fantasy lineups throughout Championship Week. |

Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu (calf) available Monday vs. Mavericks
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 9:16 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ayo Dosunmu (calf) is available for Monday's matchup with the Mavericks.
Analysis: Dosunmu was on a heater before missing the last two games, but he'll return to face Dallas. Anthony Edwards is questionable, and if Ant-Man is sidelined, Dosunmu could operate as the team's top scorer and playmaker. Even if Edwards is cleared to play, Dosunmu has standalone value. |
