Houston Rockets forward Jordan Bell has been traded to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for Bruno Caboclo. This is the second time that Bell has been moved in the last two days. Bell isn't expected to see much playing time while Jonas Valanciunas is healthy. Caboclo is someone that can play multiple positions, but will likely be lost in the shuffle in Houston. Both players should be left on the waiver wire for the moment.
Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jordan Bell has been traded to the Houston Rockets in a massive four-team trade. The Rockets are sending Clint Capela and veteran center Nene Hilario to the Atlanta Hawks in this deal. Houston lands defensive forward Robert Covington alongside Bell in this move. Bell hasn't been given much of an opportunity on any team he's been on, but he has a real chance to make a difference in Houston. Isaiah Hartenstein should get more looks at center, but Bell should be able to battle him for minutes. He's not a must-add player right now, but if he gets a solid role in the rotation, Bell could make a difference on this team.
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward/center Jordan Bell will be welcomed back to the rotation for Fridays contest against the Washington Wizards. Bell, who has missed his teams previous five outings due to a right shoulder sprain, has appeared in just four games as a reserve this season. Despite his limited role, Bell will give Minnesota needed frontcourt depth as Andrew Wiggins (personal) is missing Fridays contest. Until the third-year big man sees his 10.6 minutes per game average bumped up, he can likely be passed up on in the vast majority of traditional fantasy formats.
Shabazz Napier, Jordan Bell Both Doubtful For Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard Shabazz Napier and power forward/center Jordan Bell are both unlikely to participate in Wednesdays contest versus the San Antonio Spurs with each man earning a doubtful designation. Both have missed Minnesotas past four games, as Napier deals with a strained right hamstring and Bell battles a strained right shoulder. With fellow point guard Jeff Teague (illness) questionable, Napiers absence likely pushes a larger role on Jarrett Culver. The best chance for either Napier or Bells return likely comes Friday versus Washington.
Jeff Teague, Jordan Bell Have Status In Doubt For Sunday
Both Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague and power forward/center Jordan Bell have picked up questionable tags for Sundays outing against the Denver Nuggets. Teague has missed each of his teams past two contests due to an illness, while Bell has missed those same outings due to a right shoulder sprain. Andrew Wiggins has reaped the benefits of Teagues absence with Minnesotas backcourt severely hampered by injury. Check back before tip-off to get a clearer look at whether either man will be able to suit up.
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward/center Jordan Bell has been given the green light to suit up for Wednesdays game versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Bell carried a questionable designation for the majority of the day due to a right shoulder sprain, but he will be able to play through it and come off the bench for Minnesota. He is on the heels of his best performance of the young season, having compiled 12 points and six rebounds across 15 minutes Monday, although how his role will be impacted upon Karl-Anthony Towns return from suspension remains to be seen.
Jeff Teague, Jordan Bell Both Questionable For Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague and power forward/center Jordan Bell have both picked up questionable designations ahead of Wednesdays outing versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Teague is dealing with an illness, while Bell has a right shoulder sprain. The team will welcome back Karl-Anthony Towns from suspension, but may not be at full strength. Should Teague miss the game, the team could be in dire straits at the point guard spot with Shabazz Napier doubtful to play. Check back closer to tip-off to get an update on both players.
Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jordan Bell (calf) will be available for Tuesday's preseason game against the Indiana Pacers. Bell has been dealing with a left calf issue, but the Wolves should be able to get him into the game on Tuesday. However, Bell is going to have limited value even when healthy. He's worth looking at in deep leagues, but that's about it at the moment.
Golden State Warriors power forward/center Jordan Bell provided some excellent minutes in the Game 2 win over the Trail Blazers on Thursday. Bell played just 14 minutes but scored 11 points with three rebounds and added an assist with two steals and a block. Bell was active on this night as he was getting good looks at the basket off of pick and rolls and also played great defense on pick and rolls at the other end. We have seen Bell have games like these in the past and then disappear in the next, so he is more of a punt play for Game 3.
Golden State Warriors power forward/center Jordan Bell is listed as probable for Wednesdays game against the Miami Heat, having been held out Monday versus Charlotte due to an illness. Minutes have been hard to come by for Bell since the return of DeMarcus Cousins, but Bell has proven to be an active body off the bench for the Warriors when given the opportunity. Barring rest for the starters, Bell can be passed on as a fantasy option at this point.
