Jaden McDaniels Cleared to Face Phoenix

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) will play on Friday versus the Suns. He's had an exceptional season, averaging a career-high 17.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, and 1.0 steals while shooting an impressive 52.1% from deep. Fortunately, his absence was short-lived. All things considered, McDaniels can automatically be plugged back into all fantasy lineups, with Mike Conley in line to return to the bench.

Jaden McDaniels Could Miss Another Game on Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) may only need to miss one game after picking up a questionable tag for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He's dealing with a sprained wrist that he suffered on Monday in their win over the Dallas Mavericks. The 25-year-old doesn't miss games very often, so he has a real chance to return. If he is forced to miss one more game, however, Mike Conley would likely remain in the starting five. In their last game against the Washington Wizards, Conley registered 10 points, six assists, one rebound, and one steal across 27 minutes. He'd be the best streaming option, especially for guard stats in category leagues.

Jaden McDaniels Out Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. McDaniels will miss his first game of the season due to a sprained left wrist. Jaylen Clark will likely see increased playing time with McDaniels sidelined, and the Timberwolves' frontcourt will rely on Naz Reid to take on extra minutes. Reid is coming off a double-double against the Mavs on Monday, when he registered a season-high 22 points, 12 rebounds, and two assists in 23 minutes.

Jaden McDaniels Uncertain for Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) is on the injury report with a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's tilt against the Washington Wizards. He might be sidelined for the first time this season after spraining his left wrist. While McDaniels is mainly known for his defensive abilities, he has taken a big leap offensively this season, averaging 17.5 points per game. He is also one of Minnesota's better rebounders, averaging 4.6 boards. Jaylen Clark will likely see increased playing time if McDaniels isn't available on Wednesday night, although the Timberwolves might also choose to go with a bigger lineup and have Naz Reid on the court more often.

Jaden McDaniels Busy Against Thunder in Game 4

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels made an impact all over the court in Monday's Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, notching 22 points, four rebounds, two assists, four steals, and one block in a 128-126 loss. He was Minnesota's leading scorer among the starting unit, shooting 9-for-15 from the field and 3-for-6 from behind the arc. McDaniels is highly regarded for his defense, but he has also stepped up offensively in these playoffs, averaging 15.4 points per game. In the matchup against the Thunder, McDaniels has already had two 20-point outings. Given Julius Randle's struggles, the Thunder may have to rely even more on McDaniels for offense in Wednesday's elimination game.

Jaden McDaniels Leads Timberwolves With 24 Points In Game 1 Against Dallas

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels opened Wednesday's Game 1 against Dallas with 4-for-4 three-point shooting and was the team's top scorer in the end in a 108-105 loss with 24 points. The 23-year-old enjoyed his third consecutive 20-point effort with 9-for-15 shooting, hitting six of his nine attempts from behind the arc. McDaniels' night also included four rebounds, three assists, and one steal. Minnesota's young forward has built himself a reputation as a very good defensive player, and he was selected to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team at the start of the week. But McDaniels has also been on a roll offensively lately thanks to some very sharp three-point shooting, going 12-for-18 from deep across his last three appearances.

Jaden McDaniels Continues To Roll In Game 7

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels produced a second consecutive 20-point game on Sunday in a Game 7 win against the Nuggets, shooting 7-for-10 from the field en route to 23 points. He was the team's joint top scorer with Karl-Anthony Toews. McDaniels' night included a 3-for-4 effort from downtown, and he completed his line with six rebounds, one assist, two steals, and one block. The 23-year-old is more known for his defensive qualities, but McDaniels definitely gave Minnesota a boost in the attacking end in the last couple of games, which helped the team tilt the series in its favor. McDaniels now boasts three 20-point performances in 11 playoff games after having only had seven such outings during the regular season.

Jaden McDaniels Scores 21 Points In Game 6 Win

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels cashed in an ultra-efficient performance in Game 6, which ended in a complete blowout and a Game 7 on the horizon. McDaniels has been a defensive force for this team throughout the playoffs so far and he's thrown in a few big offensive efforts for good measure. In Game 6, McDaniels posted 21 points on 8-for-10 shooting while chipping in four rebounds, one assist, one steal, and two blocks. His defensive versatility has been the biggest key to the Timberwolves' engine. McDaniels hasn't been a big offensive producer in the away games in this series, though, so he may not be the best DFS option for Game 7.

Jaden McDaniels Erupts In Game 2

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels scored a game-high 25 points in Tuesday's win over the Suns. He shot the ball well, going 10-for-17 from the field, and added eight rebounds, three assists, and a steal. The 23-year-old had just nine points in Game 1, which isn't unusual. Yet, with production like this, his popularity will increase heading toward Game 3 on Friday night. However, his rostering cost should also rise after the efficient performance.

Jaden McDaniels Upgraded To Available On Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (finger) will play on Monday against the Los Angeles Clippers after being upgraded from questionable to available. He originally injured his finger on Thursday and could only play 19 minutes in a 24-point win over the Milwaukee Bucks. He registered eight points, three rebounds, two blocks, and one turnover in that contest. McDaniels hasn't exactly been the best fantasy asset outside of points and field goal percentage, so he hasn't been viable outside of the deepest leagues. He remains in the starting five though so he does receive plenty of opportunities on a nightly basis and serves as a stronger streaming option when others are out of the lineup.
