Timberwolves' Mike Conley: Iffy to face Milwaukee on Wednesday
Conley (finger) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Conley is in jeopardy of missing his third consecutive contest due to a right index finger sprain. If the veteran point guard remains on the shelf, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Rob Dillingham are candidates for an uptick in playing time. Over his last five appearances, Conley has averaged 10.2 points, 6.8 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 three-pointers across 29.2 minutes per game.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Questionable for Wednesday
Edwards (hip) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Edwards has been a mainstay on the injury report of late due to right hip soreness, and he was previously held out of Saturday's win over Portland as a precautionary measure. If the superstar is sidelined in the first leg of the club's back-to-back set, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Jaylen Clark are candidates for an uptick in playing time. Over his last five outings, Edwards has averaged 38.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.6 three-pointers, 5.0 assists and 1.2 blocks while shooting 46.7 percent from downtown in 36.8 minutes per contest.

Timberwolves' Rudy Gobert: Top rebounder in near double-double
Gobert ended with 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, two blocks and one assist over 27 minutes in Monday's 128-107 loss to Cleveland.
Gobert had somewhat of a quiet outing Monday but led all Timberwolves players in rebounds to go along with a team-high-tying pair of blocks and finished two boards short of a double-double. Gobert has recorded at least 10 points and eight rebounds in 28 outings this season, including in seven straight contests.

Timberwolves' Rob Dillingham: Reaches double figures off bench
Dillingham contributed 13 points (5-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes in Monday's 128-107 loss to Cleveland.
Dillingham provided a nice lift off the Timberwolves bench with Minnesota somewhat shorthanded in the absence of Mike Conley (finger), leading all second-unit players in scoring, assists and minutes played in a losing effort. Dillingham has crossed the double-digit scoring mark in seven outings, though Monday marked the first time he's done so in February.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Another 40-point showing in return
Edwards contributed 44 points (13-28 FG, 8-15 3Pt, 10-13 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal over 37 minutes in Monday's 128-107 loss to Cleveland.
Edwards returned Monday after missing Minnesota's previous contest due to a hip injury, and he remained hot by once again surpassing the 40-point mark while leading all players in scoring and threes made in a losing effort. Edwards has tallied 40 or more points in five contests this season, including in three straight appearances. Over his last three outings, Edwards has averaged 44.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game. In those three straight 40-point performances, Edwards has connected on five or more threes in every contest.

Timberwolves' Mike Conley: Won't play Monday
Conley (finger) is out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
A right finger sprain will cost Conley a second straight game Monday. The veteran guard's next chance to play arrives Wednesday against the Bucks. In Conley's absence, Nickeil Alexander-Walker will remain in Minnesota's starting lineup against Cleveland and have a chance to return enhanced fantasy value.

Timberwolves' Rob Dillingham: Returning to bench Monday
Dillingham is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Dillingham got the start Saturday against the Trail Blazers and finished with eight points and six assists across 24 minutes while shooting 4-for-12 from the field. The rookie has played double-digit minutes in each of his last nine outings regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench, however, so he should continue to see a decent workload in a depleted Timberwolves backcourt that's missing Mike Conley (finger) and Donte DiVincenzo (toe).

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Scores 21 points in spot start
Alexander-Walker chipped in 21 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six assists, five rebounds, one block and one steal over 38 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 win over Portland.
The 26-year-old received the starting nod with Anthony Edwards (hip) sidelined, tying Rob Dillingham for the team-high mark in assists. Alexander-Walker also sank four triples in the victory, something he has done only six times this season. The sixth-year pro has joined the starting five in three of the club's last six outings, and he has averaged 11.0 points, 3.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 three-pointers across 32.0 minutes per contest in that six-game span.

Timberwolves' Jaden McDaniels: Leads Minnesota in victory
McDaniels notched 30 points (12-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 win over Portland.
The 24-year-old forward posted a game- and season-high mark in points, leading the Timberwolves to a win without Anthony Edwards (hip) and Julius Randle (thigh). McDaniels also posted his fifth double-double of the season, finishing with the second-highest mark in boards behind Rudy Gobert (11 rebounds). McDaniels has been much improved on the offensive end of late, averaging 19.8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks across 36.2 minutes per contest in his last five outings.

Timberwolves' Rob Dillingham: Shooting woes in spot start
Dillingham produced eight points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt), six assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 victory over the Trail Blazers.
Dillingham struggled from three-point range during his first career start, though he did tie the team-high mark in assists. The rookie has received fairly significant playing time in 13 outings since returning from a multi-week absence due to a right ankle sprain. In that 13-game span, Dillingham has averaged 8.2 points and 3.4 assists across 16.2 minutes per contest. The 20-year-old will likely continue to stick around in Minnesota's rotation until Donte DiVincenzo (toe) returns.

Timberwolves' Rob Dillingham: Will start vs. Portland
Dillingham will be in the starting lineup Saturday against the Trail Blazers.
Dillingham will be a starter for Minnesota for the first time this season with the team shorthanded in the backcourt. Mike Conley (finger) and Anthony Edwards (hip) have been ruled out for this game against Portland, meaning the rookie guard will have an increased workload in the backcourt along with Nickeil Alexander-Walker, who will also be in the starting lineup Saturday.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back in starting lineup
Alexander-Walker will start Saturday's game against Portland.
With Anthony Edwards (hip) and Mike Conley (finger) sidelined, Alexander-Walker and Rob Dillingham will move into the starting lineup. Across his previous four starts this season, Alexander-Walker has averaged 12.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.8 steals in 32.8 minutes per game.

Timberwolves' Mike Conley: Ruled out Saturday
Conley (finger) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.
Conley is coming off a 16-point performance in Thursday's win against the Rockets but will miss Saturday's contest against the Trail Blazers while nursing a sprained finger on his right hand. In the veteran guard's absence, Minnesota will likely turn to Rob Dillingham and Nickeil Alexander-Walker to help pick up the slack in the backcourt against Portland.
