Rudy Gobert - Iffy for Sunday Gobert is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rockets with a sprained left ankle.
Impact Gobert lands a questionable tag for a second straight contest with a sprained ankle. He played through the injury Friday and logged a double-double across 39 minutes. If he can't suit up Sunday, Naz Reid and Luka Garza would likely handle larger workloads.

Anthony Edwards - Surpasses 20 points in defeat Edwards amassed 22 points (9-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Friday's 108-106 loss to Orlando.
Impact Edwards connected on a pair of threes while handing out a handful or rebounds and ending with a team-high-tying point total in a narrow defeat at home Friday. Edwards, coming off a single-digit performance the game prior, got back on track against Orlando while posting his fifth game with 20 or more points in his last six outings.

Mike Conley - Top distributor in defeat Conley had four points (1-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and three steals over 28 minutes during Friday's 108-106 loss to the Magic.
Impact Conley struggled shooting the ball from the field, connecting on just one shot in Friday's defeat, but still impacted the game by handing out a team-high assist total along with a handful of rebounds and a team-high trio of steals. Conley has distributed nine or more rebounds in 11 games this season while recording at least five boards for the fifth time. Conley has failed to tally at least five points in just two games this year, the other of which occurred Jan. 20 with a season-low three points.

Impact Gobert led all players in Friday's contest in rebounds and free throws made while ending with a team-high-tying point total and as the one Timberwolves player with a double-double in a losing effort. Gobert, who also recorded a team-high-tying pair of blocks, has tallied at least 20 points and 15 rebounds in three games this season. He has now posted a double-double in eight of his last 10 contests.

Rudy Gobert - Will play Friday Gobert (ankle) will play in Friday's game against Orlando, Dane Moore of 'The Dane Moore NBA Podcast' reports.
Impact Gobert has been very durable this season, missing a total of one game. There's no word of any restrictions, but Minnesota will likely watch his ankle closely. In his most recent outing against Dallas on Wednesday, Gobert had 17 points, six rebounds and two blocks in 28 minutes.

Rudy Gobert - Dealing with ankle sprain Gobert is questionable for Friday's game against the Magic due to a left ankle sprain.
Impact Gobert has missed just one game this season, but his availability for Friday is in jeopardy after being a late addition to the injury report. If the starting center is sidelined, Naz Reid would presumably be the primary beneficiary, even if he doesn't move into the starting lineup. In Gobert's lone absence this season, Kyle Anderson replaced Gobert in the starting lineup, moving Karl-Anthony Towns to center, but Reid posted 19 points, 10 rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes off the bench during a 127-120 overtime loss to Boston.
