GAME LOG

Anthony Edwards - Leads team with 29 points Edwards closed Friday's 111-102 win over the Lakers with 29 points (11-22 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 38 minutes.
Impact Edwards started to put the game out of reach with a 16-point third quarter, providing an extra gear for the Minnesota offense to extend the Lakers' winless streak. Although Edwards has had sone shooting struggles this season, he is essentially matchup-proof and will always contribute in secondary categories to bolster his fantasy totals.

Rudy Gobert - Dominates inside with 21 rebounds Gobert recorded 22 points (7-11 FG, 8-12 FT), 21 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 111-102 win over the Lakers.
Impact With Anthony Davis (back) out of the lineup, Gobert had a field day against Damian Jones, who had no answer for Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns in the frontcourt. While the Timberwolves entered the season with some debate as to how the Towns-Gobert tandem would work, things seem to be going swimmingly. Towns' floor-stretching shotmaking is as good as ever, and Gobert is thriving inside defensively, doing what he does best.

Jordan McLaughlin - Late scratch Friday McLaughlin has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Lakers due to right heel soreness.
Impact McLaughlin wasn't on the Timberwolves' initial injury report for Friday's matchup due to his heel injury. Austin Rivers and Jaylen Nowell should see increased run Friday, while McLaughlin's next chance to return will be Sunday against the Spurs.

Kyle Anderson - Ruled out Friday Anderson (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Lakers.
Impact Anderson was officially questionable ahead of Friday's matchup, but coach Chris Finch said prior to the game that the forward was unlikely to play. Anderson will be held out for a fourth consecutive game due to back spasms, while his next chance to return will be Sunday against the Spurs.

Impact Anderson is expected to miss his fourth consecutive game due to back spasms. If the 30-year-old forward doesn't play, Taurean Prince should continue to play around 20 minutes. Anderson's next opportunity to play will be Sunday's game versus the Spurs.

Timberwolves' success hinges on sharing — and so far, so good Their record isn't a wow, at 3-2, but hidden underneath the unsteady start: unselfishness. That's vital for this team.

Kyle Anderson - Questionable versus Lakers Anderson (back) is questionable to play in Friday's game versus the Lakers.
Impact Anderson will look to make his return Friday after missing three consecutive games due to back spasms. Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said earlier that Anderson's status is "up in the air," so it sounds like his availability will be a game-time decision. The 30-year-old forward's next game will be Sunday against the Spurs if he doesn't play Friday.

Kyle Anderson - Status uncertain Friday Coach Chris Finch said Thursday that Anderson's (back) status is "up in the air" for Friday's game against the Lakers, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Impact Anderson has missed the last three games due to back spasms, but he was able to get some work in during Thursday's practice session. If he's unavailable once again Friday, Taurean Prince and Jaylen Nowell would likely see increased run.

Jordan McLaughlin - Slow start continues McLaughlin accumulated six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 134-122 win over the Spurs.
Impact McLaughlin has yet to kick it into gear so far in 2022-23, with his best scoring outing of the season coming Wednesday night. He's logged double-digit minutes off the bench in each game but has shown little promise for fantasy managers.
OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jaylen Nowell - Leads charge off bench Nowell closed with 23 points (9-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 134-122 win over the Spurs.
Impact Nowell led the reserves in scoring and rebounding in this one as he tallied his first 20-point game of the young season. Though he should continue to come off the bench moving forward, the Washington product has put up 13 or more points in each of his first five games of the 2022-23 campaign.
OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Anthony Edwards - Enjoys huge scoring night Edwards finished Wednesday's 134-122 victory over the Spurs with 34 points (12-21 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 38 minutes.
Impact Edwards bounced back in a big way Wednesday night, as he drilled a season-high seven triples while falling just one assist shy of a double-double. He's registered 30 or more points in three of his last four contests and should be a candidate for plenty of similar performances given his talent and the number of opportunities he's sure to receive as the season unfolds.
