Upgraded to questionable Beasley (ankle) participated in the team's morning shootaround and has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Dane Moore of BringMeTheNews.com reports...
Impact The 2016 first-round pick was previously listed as out, and Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch said earlier this week that Beasley isn't "anywhere close" to returning to game action, but he appears to have made a miraculous turnaround and has a chance to suit up Friday. Beasley has missed back-to-back games after suffering the injury during a March 25 win over the Mavericks. The sixth-year wing has appeared in 74 games this season and is averaging 12.1 points across 25.0 minutes per game, so his potential presence would be a big boost for a Timberwolves squad that hasn't won in his absence.

Not close to returning Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch said Tuesday that Beasley (ankle) isn't "anywhere close" to returning to game action, Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Impact Based on Finch's comments, Beasley will likely be sidelined for at least a week and may be out even longer. The Timberwolves only have six games remaining in the regular season, so it's possible Minnesota plays it safe to make sure he's healthy for a potential playoff run. Regardless, the sixth-year wing has appeared in all but two games this season and has averaged 12.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 25.0 minutes per game, so his absence will be a blow to the Timberwolves' depth. Moving forward, Jaylen Nowell, Taurean Prince and Jordan McLaughlin figure to be Minnesota's top options off the bench.
