Wolves-Celtics preview: Home losing streak at Target Center four gamesThe Wolves have not won at Target Center since early February. And Boston comes in as one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
Jaylen Nowell - Questionable against CelticsNowell (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus Boston.
ImpactNowell is in danger of missing his eighth straight game Wednesday due to a left knee injury. Nickeil Alexander-Walker should continue to see extended minutes if Nowell is ruled out.

Austin Rivers - Iffy against BostonRivers (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Celtics.
ImpactRivers may miss his fifth straight game Wednesday due to back spasms. If he's unable to suit up, his next opportunity will be Friday's matchup with Chicago.

Naz Reid - Questionable WednesdayReid (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
ImpactReid missed the last game due to his calf injury, which allowed Luka Garza to get some extended run in the rotation behind Rudy Gobert. However, Gobert is also being listed as questionable for Wednesday's game due to his nagging left ankle sprain, so if both Reid and Gobert are forced to the sidelines, Garza would be on the radar as a potential streamer.

Rudy Gobert - Questionable for WednesdayGobert (left ankle sprain) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
ImpactNaz Reid (left calf) is also questionable for Wednesday's game, so if both those guys are forced to the sidelines, Luka Garza could be forced into big minutes and Nathan Knight would have the opportunity for some extended run. Gobert managers will need to check back for another update closer to Wednesday's tip.

Rudy Gobert - Excels while playing through injuryGobert (ankle) tallied 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal in 30 minutes in Monday's 136-115 win over the Hawks.
ImpactGobert's status was cloudy heading into the day while he managed a left ankle sprain, but the veteran center showed no sign of being affected by the injury while taking on a normal minutes count Monday. Though the Timberwolves may have some buyer's remorse about giving up a cache of draft picks and players to acquire Gobert from the Jazz this past summer, the 30-year-old has recently stepped up his play. Over his seven appearances since the All-Star break, Gobert is shooting 63.9 percent from the floor and is averaging 16.3 points, 10.7 boards, 2.0 blocks, 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals.

Karl-Anthony Towns - Limited to 1-on-1 workTimberwolves head coach Chris Finch said Monday that Towns (calf) has recently resumed taking part in 1-on-1 drills but isn't yet cleared for full team activities, Chris Hine of th...
ImpactAdvancing to 1-on-1 work represents a marginal step forward for Towns from the last update Finch provided for the big man, who is now taking some resistance in drills after previously taking part in 1-on-0 or 2-on-0 drills. Towns, who has been sidelined since Nov. 28 with a severe right calf strain, still has a few more milestones to hit in his recovery program and is likely at least a week away from suiting up for the Timberwolves.
