Matisse Thybulle - Won't play Friday Thybulle (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact Thybulle is still ramping back up to playing form after undergoing a minor surgical procedure on his right knee in October. The 27-year-old's next chance to suit up will come Sunday against the Grizzlies.

Shaedon Sharpe - Not on injury report Friday Sharpe is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Impact Sharpe played in his first game since Jan. 11 in Thursday's loss to the Spurs, during which he posted 13 points (6-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, an assist and a block across 20 minutes off the bench. The 21-year-old's availability in the second day of a back-to-back set bodes well for his status moving forward, and he could eventually take a spot in the starting five from Toumani Camara or Deni Avdija. The team will likely continue to ramp Sharpe back up to playing form slowly, though his health and scoring ability will likely result in an uptick in playing time.

Deni Avdija - Efficient in limited attempts Avdija produced nine points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-5 FT), seven rebounds and five assists over 25 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Avdija has produced an inefficient start to the year, during which he has shot only 35.9 percent from the field and 20.0 percent from deep. The 23-year-old has struggled in a new setting this season, and he has taken a backseat to the club's top options in Anfernee Simons, Jerami Grant and Deandre Ayton. With Shaedon Sharpe making his return to game action, it's a possibility that Avdija sees a decrease in playing time, and Sharpe could even replace him in the starting five eventually.

Anfernee Simons - Ties season-high assists in loss Simons registered 19 points (7-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs.
Impact The 25-year-old tied his season high in assists while finishing as the game's third-highest scorer behind Deandre Ayton (21) and Jerami Grant (21). However, Simons did struggle from three-point range, and he has shot only 32.0 percent from beyond the arc through nine regular-season outings. The guard has taken a step back in scoring the rock this season, during which he has averaged 19.4 points, 5.3 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 0.9 steals across 33.9 minutes per game.

Deandre Ayton - Season-high 21 points Thursday Ayton ended Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs with 21 points (10-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two steals and one block over 31 minutes.
Impact Despite the loss, the big man put up monster numbers while tying Jerami Grant for the game high in points. Ayton has posted a double-double in all but one game thus far, and he is also shooting an efficient 52.5 percent from the field. The 26-year-old center has averaged 15.1 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.6 blocks across 31.4 minutes per game through nine regular-season outings.

Jerami Grant - Ties game-high 21 points in loss Grant racked up 21 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-11 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 37 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs.
Impact The 30-year-old tied Deandre Ayton with a game-high 21 points, despite the double-digit loss. Grant shot an efficient 60 percent from the field, though efficiency has been an issue for him thus far as he is shooting 39.2 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from beyond the arc. Through nine regular-season outings, the forward has averaged 18.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.9 steals across 33.9 minutes per game.

Shaedon Sharpe - Efficient scoring in limited run Sharpe (shoulder) tallied 13 points (6-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 20 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs.
Impact After missing the first eight games of the season while recovering from a small posterior labral tear in his left shoulder, Sharpe was eased back into the rotation in a bench role. Sharpe will likely be operating under a minutes restriction for at least a few more games, but once he gets fully ramped up, he could be a candidate to replace either Toumani Camara or Deni Avdija in the starting five. Though he doesn't possess the most well-rounded fantasy profile, Sharpe has displayed some scoring potential during his brief time in the NBA and could be particularly useful in points leagues.
