Bryn Forbes - Questionable Wednesday Forbes is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to right shoulder soreness.
Impact Forbes hurt his shoulder during the Timberwolves' shootaround Monday and was unable to suit up during the team's win over the Nuggets that day, Dane Moore of BringMeTheNews.com. It's unclear whether he'll be able to return Wednesday, but his status shouldn't impact Minnesota's rotation much, if at all.

Timberwolves face Portland after losing twice to Trail Blazers in December The Trail Blazers are at Target Center on Wednesday night against the depleted Wolves.

Taurean Prince - Upgraded to questionable Prince (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Impact Prince hasn't played since Nov. 23, and head coach Chris Finch said at the end of December that the forward was out indefinitely. However, it appears like Prince has recently made some strides in his recovery and will have a chance to suit up Wednesday.

D'Angelo Russell - Drops off injury report Russell (illness) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Trail Blazers.
Impact Russell was a late addition to Monday's injury report due to illness, but it appears the bug is in the rearview with Wednesday's contest approaching. Russell should retake his spot in the starting lineup, likely sending Jaylen Nowell back to the bench.
JANUARY 3, 2023 โ€ข ROTOWIRE
Naz Reid - Listed as questionable Reid (back) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Portland.
Impact Reid was sidelined for Monday's game after being a late addition to the injury report with a back issue. It's encouraging not to see him initially listed as out, suggesting the injury isn't severe, but the reserve big man may still miss at least one additional contest. If that's the case, Kyle Anderson, Jaden McDaniels and Nathan Knight are all candidates for increased roles, especially with Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) out for the foreseeable future.
JANUARY 3, 2023 โ€ข ROTOWIRE
Kyle Anderson - Steps up with Russell, Reid out Anderson finished with 19 points (6-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and three steals across 31 minutes in Monday's 124-111 win over the Nuggets.
Impact While D'Angelo Russell (illness) and Naz Reid (back) joined Karl-Anthony Towns (calf), Taurean Prince (shoulder) and Jordan McLaughlin (calf) among Minnesota players who weren't available Monday, Anderson stepped into a heightened role on the offensive end. He took on a usage rate greater than 20 percent for just the fourth time all season and came through with strong returns in the points and assists categories, doing so while shooting efficiently from all three areas and committing just one turnover. If Russell is back in action Wednesday against the Trail Blazers, Anderson will lose out on some playmaking opportunities, but he should continue to handle around a 30-minute-per-game role while Minnesota is still without some key contributors in the frontcourt.

NBA Stock Watch: Rudy Gobert, Wolves spiraling; Luka Donฤiฤ‡ in MVP hunt

Luka Donฤiฤ‡ can't be stopped, the Wolves can't find their footing, and the Warriors are still scary. Here's who's rising and who's falling.

NBA Stock Watch: Rudy Gobert, Wolves spiraling; Luka Donฤiฤ‡ in MVP hunt
Nathan Knight - Nudges double-double Monday Knight contributed eight points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 22 minutes during Monday's 124-111 win over the Nuggets.
Impact Knight slid up in the rotation Monday after Naz Reid was ruled out with back spasms. He came through with what was a decent performance, including a season-high eight rebounds. If Reid is forced to miss additional time, Knight could be worth a look in deeper formats for anyone in need of a cheap center.
JANUARY 3, 2023 โ€ข ROTOWIRE
Anthony Edwards - Goes for 29-and-10 in win Edwards totaled 29 points (10-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Monday's 124-111 win over Denver.
Impact Edwards led from the front Monday, guiding the Timberwolves to a much-needed victory. Coming off six straight losses, this was certainly what was needed for not only the players but also the fans. Results aside, Edwards continues to put up some gaudy numbers on both ends of the floor. This should remain the case for as long as Karl-Anthony Towns is sidelined with his calf injury.
JANUARY 3, 2023 โ€ข ROTOWIRE
Jaylen Nowell - Scores 17 points in spot start Nowell closed Monday's 124-111 victory over the Nuggets with 17 points (8-16 FG, 1-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 31 minutes.
Impact Nowell shifted into the starting lineup Monday, replacing D'Angelo Russell who was out due to an illness. In what was his first start of the season, Nowell came through for anyone who happened to stream him in, delivering an efficient 17 points. There is no word on whether Russell will miss further time but if that is the case, Nowell would make for a viable streaming option for a little while longer.

Jaylen Nowell - Drawing first start of season Nowell is starting Monday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact Nowell will enter the starting lineup at shooting guard with Anthony Edwards bumping over to point guard due to the absence of D'Angelo Russell (illness). This marks Nowell's first start of the 2022-23 campaign, and he's averaging 11.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists in his last seven appearances.
JANUARY 3, 2023 โ€ข ROTOWIRE
D'Angelo Russell - Out Monday Russell (illness) won't play Monday against the Nuggets.
Impact Russell was downgraded to questionable earlier in the day due to illness, and it's since been announced that he won't be able to go. Anthony Edwards should have an opportunity to run the offense in his absence, and Jaylen Nowell will enter the starting five at shooting guard.
