Target Center, Minneapolis, MN
Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards coming off rare performance heading into Utah gameThe guard is only the second Minnesota player with a game of at least 20 points, five rebounds, five assists and five steals.
Taurean Prince - Still out FridayPrince (shoulder) will not suit up against the Jazz on Friday.
ImpactPrince will miss a seventh straight game due to a right shoulder dislocation. Kyle Anderson will continue to benefit from his absence, while Prince's next chance to take the court will come Saturday against Portland.

James Johnson - Questionable FridayJohnson is questionable to play in Friday's game versus Washington due to a right elbow sprain.
ImpactJohnson was available to play Wednesday but didn't log any minutes. Even if Johnson plays Friday, his average of 8.9 minutes across seven games this season is unlikely to generate much fantasy value.
DECEMBER 8, 2022ā¢ROTOWIRE
Isaiah Jackson - Listed as questionableJackson is questionable for Friday's game against Washington due to right knee soreness.
ImpactJackson has appeared in the last eight games, and he averaged 6.4 points and 2.4 rebounds in 13.4 minutes per game during that time. Goga Bitadze and Terry Taylor could see some extra playing time in the frontcourt if Jackson or Myles Turner (hamstring) are held out Friday.

Chris Duarte - Remains sidelined versus WashingtonDuarte (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Wizards.
ImpactDuarte hasn't played since Nov. 4 due to a left ankle sprain. The second-year guard's next chance to play will be in the second leg of a back-to-back in Saturday's game against the Nets.
DECEMBER 8, 2022ā¢ROTOWIRE
D'Angelo Russell - Erupts for 28 pointsRussell contributed 28 points (9-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four assists and one steal across 28 minutes in Wednesday's 121-115 win over the Pacers.
ImpactThough Russell didn't provide an especially well-rounded stat line Wednesday, he's thus far been one of the beneficiaries of Karl-Anthony Towns' absence over the last three games due to a calf injury that will likely sideline him at least one month. Russell has put up at least 16 field-goal attempts in each of those three contests after having failed to clear 15 in each of his 14 games before that. He's knocked down more than half of his field-goal tries in the last two games to bring his rate for the season up to a career-best 44 percent.
DECEMBER 8, 2022ā¢ROTOWIRE
Jalen Smith - Off injury reportSmith (knee) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Wizards.
ImpactSmith will return following a one-game absence. He could see more minutes if Myles Turner (hamstring), who is questionable, gets ruled out. Over his past 10 appearances, Smith is averaging 12.1 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 22.3 minutes.
