Jordan McLaughlin - Out at least four weeks McLaughlin was diagnosed with a right knee MCL sprain Tuesday and will re-evaluated in four weeks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact McLaughlin suffered his injury in Monday's matchup with Boston and will now be headed toward a lengthy absence. McLaughlin is averaging just 3.8 minutes across his five appearances this season, so his absence shouldn't have a big impact on Minnesota's rotation.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker - Season-high eight points Alexander-Walker totaled eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, three assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime win over Boston.
Impact Alexander-Walker set season highs in made three-pointers and points. The defensive-minded guard has carved out a solid secondary role in Minnesota's backcourt, but his production hasn't been worthy of consideration in most fantasy formats. At best, Alexander-Walker is a steaming option for managers in need of defensive production in category leagues.

Karl-Anthony Towns - Falls flat offensively Towns fouled out of Monday's 114-109 overtime win over Boston after recording seven points (3-10 FG, 1-7 3Pt), 10 rebounds and three assists across 28 minutes.
Impact After back-to-back 20-point performances, Towns fell flat Monday. He's averaging just 16.7 points per game, which would be the lowest mark of his career. However, he's due for some positive regression, as he's currently shooting just 38.1 percent from the field. Towns has shot over 48.5 percent in each of his nine NBA campaigns, so it's only a matter of time before the talented big man finds his offensive rhythm.

Kyle Anderson - Quiet in win Anderson ended with three points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one block in 25 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime victory over Boston.
Impact Scoring will never be Anderson's best attribute in fantasy basketball, but he's generally pretty productive elsewhere. Through six games this season, Anderson is averaging 7.8 points, 4.7 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals. He'll face the Pelicans on Wednesday.

Impact Reid led all bench players in Monday's contest in scoring while finishing as one of four Wolves players with a double-digit point total in an impressive victory over the Celtics. Reid showcased his two-way play in the win, tallying a team-high block total while swiping a team-high-tying pair of steals in 25 minutes of action.

Jaden McDaniels - Season-best outing in victory McDaniels finished Monday's 114-109 overtime win over the Celtics with 20 points (8-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 45 minutes.
Impact McDaniels tallied his best outing of the young season, finishing as one of two Wolves players with 20 or more points in Monday's overtime victory over the Celtics. McDaniels posted 20 points for the first time this season, also connecting on a season-high mark from three in the win.

Rudy Gobert - Top rebounder in double-double Gobert recorded 14 points (6-6 FG, 2-11 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one block in 41 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime win over the Celtics.
Impact Gobert led all players in Monday's contest in rebounds while posting a double-double outing in an overtime victory over the Celtics. Gobert has owned the paint for Minnesota this season, surpassing a double-digit rebound total in all six contests while finishing with a double-double in five of those six games.
NOVEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Anthony Edwards - Shines in all-around showing Edwards racked up 38 points (15-25 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime victory over the Celtics.
Impact Edwards did it all in Minnesota's overtime win over Boston, leading all players in scoring and assists while finishing one board short of tallying a double-digit rebound total. Edwards has been phenomenal for the Wolves this season, tallying his highest scoring total of the year while posting his third game with at least 30 points, five rebounds and five assists over the last four contests.
