Naz Reid - Solid output off bench Reid closed with 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and nine rebounds over 27 minutes during Sunday's 115-108 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Reid was efficient from the field and delivered another solid display, reaching the 15-point mark for the third time over the last five contests. Even though he's had a fair share of ups and downs, which is to be expected given the nature of his bench role, but Reid has been a consistent performer off the bench for the Timberwolves this season. Through 35 outings, he's averaging 12.7 points and 4.7 rebounds while logging 22.3 minutes per game.

Karl-Anthony Towns - Scores 24 points in loss Towns totaled 24 points (8-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 27 minutes during Sunday's 115-108 loss to Dallas.
Impact Towns surpassed the 20-point mark for the fourth game in a row, but his contributions were not enough for Minnesota in a game the team lost incredibly despite having the lead late in the fourth quarter. Towns is firmly settled as Minnesota's second-best scoring option behind a red-hot Anthony Edwards, but he remains a solid play across all formats. He is averaging 19.4 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game over his last 10 appearances.

Anthony Edwards - Goes for 36 points in loss Edwards finished Sunday's 115-108 loss to Dallas with 36 points (14-27 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 37 minutes.
Impact Edwards carried the Timberwolves on Sunday, but his explosiveness on offense was not enough to secure the win against Dallas in a game where Minnesota wasted a fourth-quarter lead with some sloppy possessions down the stretch. Edwards continued his excellent run of play, however, and he has now scored 30 or more points in five of his last six outings.

Wolves, Rockets might be apart in the standings, but they're more similar than you think Beat writers Kelly Iko and Jon Krawczynski discuss the macro and micro themes that connect the two franchises.

Shake Milton - Fails to score in three minutes Milton ended with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) in three minutes during Friday's 122-95 win over the Rockets.
Impact Milton continues to be used sparingly by the Timberwolves, having played fewer than five minutes in six consecutive games. In fact, he was out of the rotation completely for three of those six games, highlighting what a struggle it has been thus far. Based on his current role, Milton is not even worth considering in deeper formats.
JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan McLaughlin - Remains in rotation Friday McLaughlin produced three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals across 13 minutes during Friday's 122-95 win over Houston.
Impact McLaughlin played at least 12 minutes for the third straight game, a welcome sign when compared to his season thus far. Although he can be a viable target in deeper formats when afforded meaningful minutes, his role is too unpredictable at this point. Managers should keep an eye on him, just in case he supplants Nickeil Alexander-Walker. If that does happen, McLaughlin could have some value as an assists and steals specialist.
JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE
Mike Conley - Slump continues Friday Conley totaled eight points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds and five assists over 25 minutes during Friday's 122-95 win over the Rockets.
Impact Conley continued to struggle Friday, scoring fewer than 10 points for the third straight game. He has been outside the top 100 over the past week, buoyed primarily by his 6.5 assists per game. Although his upside is basically non-existent at this point in his career, Conley has quietly been a must-roster player all season. As long as scoring is not high on your list of priorities, Conley should remain a viable asset moving forward.
