Anthony Edwards - Option exercised for 2023-24 The Timberwolves exercised the $13.53 million option for Edwards in 2023-24 on Saturday.
Impact Edwards has been everything he was billed to be coming out of the 2020 NBA Draft, compiling 21.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.5 steals over 34.3 minutes per game last season. He will serve in a starring role in the backcourt again, but there will also be another mouth to feed down low following the team's offseason acquisition of All-Star Rudy Gobert.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jaden McDaniels - Fourth-year option picked up The Timberwolves exercised McDaniels' fourth-year rookie option for 2023-24 on Saturday.
Impact McDaniels will become a restricted free agent after the 2023-24 season. McDaniels has earned the Timberwolves' starting small forward role after averaging 9.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.8 blocks and 0.7 steals in 25.8 minutes over 70 games last season. The third-year forward has already become the team's best perimeter defender.

Underestimated 'since Day 1,' Timberwolves' Jordan McLaughlin continues to make doubters eat their words It’s the intangibles that make the 26-year-old point guard so valuable on the court.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • TWINCITIES.COM
PJ Dozier - Let go by Minnesota The Timberwolves waived Dozier on Saturday.
Impact Dozier did not appear in any of the Timberwolves' preseason games. Last season he averaged 5.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.6 steals in 18.9 minutes across 18 games for the Nuggets. Dozier will look to join his fifth team in six seasons.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
A.J. Lawson - Let go by Minnesota The Timberwolves waived Lawson on Saturday.
Impact Lawson played for the Mavericks in the 2022 NBA Summer League and averaged 15.6 points on 51.9 percent shooting from the field. The 22-year-old guard also appeared in three games for the Timberwolves this preseason. Lawson being waived opened the two-way spot for Luka Garza.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Taurean Prince - Logs 15 minutes in loss Prince (rest) tallied six points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3PT, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 15 minutes in Friday's 112-102 exhibition loss to the Nets.
Impact Prince rested in the Timberwolves' previous game, so his participation indicates he is ready to go to start the season. He projects to provide depth on the wing for Minnesota this year.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Eric Paschall - Misses preseason finale Paschall (undisclosed) did not play in Friday's preseason matchup with the Nets.
Impact Paschall missed four consecutive preseason games after playing in the team's preseason opener for an undisclosed reason. It is uncertain whether there is an underlying injury, but his status for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Thunder is up in the air.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan McLaughlin - Sits again Friday McLaughlin (shoulder) remained out Friday against the Thunder.
Impact McLaughlin was one of a bevy of Timberwolves who remain sidelined as the regular season nears. The fourth-year guard's status will e worth keeping an eye on ahead of Opening Night next Wednesday against the Thunder.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
PJ Dozier - Doesn't see action Friday Dozier (undisclosed) did not play again Friday against the Thunder.
Impact While Dozier was given a clean bill of health in mid-June after dealing with a knee issue late last season, he didn't partake in the preseason. Dozier's status for the opener next Wednesday versus the Thunder remains unclear but should come into focus leading up to the tip.

Rudy Gobert - Goes 6-for-6 in preseason loss Gobert finished Friday's loss to the Nets with 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-10 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and four steals over 30 minutes.
Impact Gobert was perfect from the field in the defeat but went just 4-for-10 from the charity stripe. He didn't register any blocks but still made an impact on the defensive end with four steals. Efficiency is a big part of Gobert's offensive game -- he's a career 65.3 percent shooter -- which helps make up for the fact that he's not a big-time scorer and isn't a good free-throw shooter. Despite the holes in his game, he's a valuable fantasy asset due to his elite rebounding and shot-blocking prowess.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Karl-Anthony Towns - Just misses double-double Towns tallied 15 points (4-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 33 minutes in Friday's preseason loss to Brooklyn.
Impact Towns didn't have his best shooting night, especially from three-point range, where he made only one of six shots. However, he grabbed a team-high nine boards and finished second on the squad with four dimes. Towns played in only two games during the exhibition slate, but he'll be ready to go for Minnesota's regular-season opener Wednesday against Oklahoma City.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
D'Angelo Russell - Wraps preseason with 17 points Russell recorded 17 points (7-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists and a steal over 27 minutes in a loss to Brooklyn on Friday.
Impact Russell led Minnesota in scoring in the contest with an efficient 7-for-13 mark from the field. He also paced the team in assists and finished the exhibition slate with per-game averages of 13.5 points, 5.5 dimes, 2.5 boards, 1.8 three-pointers and 1.8 steals. He shot 47.7 percent from the field over four games, which is significantly higher than 41.1 percent field-goal rate he posted last season.

Luka Garza - Inks two-way deal with Minnesota The Timberwolves signed Garza to a two-way contract on Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Garza averaged 7.3 points and 2.2 rebounds in four games for Minnesota this preseason. The Timberwolves already have AJ Lawson and Eric Paschall signed to two-way deals, meaning one of them will have to either get signed to an NBA contract or waived. Garza will split time between the NBA and G League this season.
