Mike Conley Re-Signs with Minnesota

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley finalized a deal with the team Tuesday, according to Michael Scotto of USA Today. The 38-year-old has averaged 4.4 points, 1.0 three, 1.8 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 18.5 minutes over 44 games this season. He is expected to slot into a reserve role behind Donte DiVincenzo, while Ayo Dosunmu continues to handle second-unit playmaking duties. That role caps Conley's fantasy ceiling to deeper formats, with Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle driving the offense.

Anthony Edwards Takes Home All-Star Game MVP

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards earned top honors Sunday after leading Team Stars to a 47-21 championship win, scoring eight points with four rebounds and two assists in eight minutes in the final. He piled up 32 points across the event and secured 10 of 14 MVP votes. The All-Star spotlight does not change anything for fantasy managers. Edwards heads into the break in rhythm, averaging 26.4 points, 3.0 threes, 5.4 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.8 steals, and 1.0 blocks over his last five games. The offense continues to run through him with a 32.1 percent usage rate, cementing his first-round value. Julius Randle remains the secondary scorer, but this is clearly Edwards' team from a fantasy perspective.

Anthony Edwards Cleared to Play Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (illness) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Wednesday's game against Portland. Edwards has been on a tear, averaging 31.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.6 steals, and 2.8 three-pointers in 37.6 minutes over his last five games. He posted 30 points, six rebounds, and six assists in 38 minutes in his most recent outing. With a 32.2 percent usage rate, Edwards remains a locked-in fantasy anchor. His availability keeps secondary options like Ayo Dosunmu and Naz Reid in complementary roles.

Julius Randle Cleared to Play Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle (thumb) will play on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. He is ready to show his former team what they are missing, shedding a questionable tag Randle picked up because of a sore left thumb. Impressively, Randle has yet to miss any games this season. He's had a great campaign in Minnesota, though Randle's numbers have dipped slightly over the last 10 games. He has notched 20.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.6 assists over that span.

Julius Randle Still Dealing With Thumb Issue, Questionable for Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle (thumb) remains on the injury report ahead of Friday's matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans. He's been dealing with a sore left thumb recently, though it hasn't yet kept Randle off the floor. However, the injury to his shooting hand has reduced Randle's scoring efficiency. Over the last two games, Randle has shot 12-for-32 from the field (37.5 percent). Naz Reid and Jaylen Clark could get more work if Randle has to exit the lineup.

Ayo Dosunmu • PG • Timberwolves

Ayo Dosunmu Traded to Timberwolves

The Chicago Bulls are trading guard Ayo Dosunmu to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for Rob Dillingham, Leonard Miller, and four second-round picks. Dosunmu has spent the first five seasons of his career in Chicago, averaging 10.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. His ascension was on display this season, as he averaged a career-high 15.0 points per game in 45 games. With Minnesota trading Mike Conley Jr. and now Dillingham, Dosunmu will compete for minutes at the point guard position alongside Donte DiVincenzo, who has started in every game this season for Minnesota. For Chicago, the rebuild continues, as Dosunmu's departure opens the door for newly acquired Jaden Ivey and Collin Sexton to take over the share left behind.

Anthony Edwards is Available for Wednesday's Game

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (elbow) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Edwards was questionable coming into this game due to elbow soreness on his non-shooting elbow. It doesn't seem to be serious enough to force him to miss any game action. Edwards has been on a tear lately with 30-plus points in three of his last five games. The superstar guard needs to be started in all fantasy formats. Fantasy managers should check their lineups and make sure Edwards is in there ahead of tip-off.

Julius Randle to Play on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Julius Randle (thumb) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Randle has been upgraded from questionable to available after dealing with left thumb soreness. It doesn't appear to be serious enough to force Randle to the sideline. This season, Randle is averaging 22.2 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 5.4 assists across 33.4 minutes per game. He has been one of the best fantasy contributors at his position and is a must-start in all fantasy formats. Fantasy managers should double-check their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Julius Randle Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle (thumb) remains on the injury report with a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's matchup against the Toronto Raptors. Due to a sore left thumb, Randle was also questionable for Monday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies, but he logged 40 minutes of action in the game. This bodes well for his chances of playing on Wednesday. However, Randle is a left-handed shooter, and the thumb issue appeared to affect his scoring ability on Monday, as the three-time All-Star shot only 5-for-14 from the field, including 1-for-6 from behind the arc. Despite his poor shooting, Randle almost pulled off a triple-double, finishing with 19 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists.

Anthony Edwards Questionable to Face Raptors

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (elbow) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. Edwards has been dealing with a lingering foot issue and was questionable for Monday's action against Memphis due to back spasms. Now, he's on the injury report with a sore left elbow. Despite being banged up, Edwards has averaged 38.0 minutes a night across the last four games. If Edwards must take some time off to rest on Wednesday, Bones Hyland would become an attractive fantasy option.

Julius Randle Available Against Grizzlies

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Julius Randle (thumb) is good to go for Monday's matchup with Memphis. Randle was listed on the injury report because of left thumb soreness, but he'll be out there on Monday night. The 31-year-old is having a fantastic 2025 campaign, averaging 22.3 points, 6.9 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.2 steals. He might be even more productive versus a Grizzlies team that has allowed 116.6 points per game this season, one of the worst averages in the NBA.

Anthony Edwards Cleared for Action Versus Memphis

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (back) is available to play in Monday's meeting with Memphis. Normally, he is listed on the injury report because of the familiar foot issue. However, Edwards was in danger of missing this one due to back spasms. Fortunately, that's not the case. Whith that said, he is in a fantastic position to exceed his usual statistical expectations versus a Grizzlies team that has allowed 116.6 points per game this season, one of the worst marks in the NBA.

Terrence Shannon Jr. Still Sidelined Without Timetable for Return

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Terrence Shannon Jr. (foot) will miss Monday against Memphis, extending his absence to 20 straight games as he continues to recover from a left foot strain with no clear return date. Shannon's role was already limited before the injury, as he averaged five points and one rebound in 13 minutes across 22 appearances, mostly off the bench. His continued absence keeps fringe minutes available, with Jaylen Clark logging 17 minutes and Bones Hyland seeing 12 minutes in the last game. Clark and Hyland remain fringe rotation pieces, offering little fantasy appeal without a clear bump in playing time.

Julius Randle May Miss First Game of the Season

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle (thumb) may be sidelined for the first time in 2025-26 on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. Randle stood out with 27 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in Saturday's win over the Grizzlies, but he also appears to have hurt his left thumb. While the injury doesn't appear to be serious, Randle is a left-handed shooter, and he might feel too uncomfortable to play. Anthony Edwards (back) is also listed as questionable for Monday, so Minnesota's offense could have a very different look. Meanwhile, Jaylen Clarke and Naz Reid are candidates for more playing time if Randle misses the action.

Anthony Edwards Dealing With Back Spasms, Questionable for Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (back) has been listed as questionable for Monday's tilt against the Memphis Grizzlies. The four-time All-Star is battling back spasms and may exit the lineup for the fourth time in 2026. Mike Conley is likely to get a starting role if Edwards can't play, though the veteran floor general is on his last legs and hasn't been productive this season. Bones Hyland and Jaylen Clark will also be in a position to see more playing time.

Mike Conley Sits Out Thursday's Game

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Mike Conley (back) will sit out the second leg of a back-to-back on Thursday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran logged 23 minutes of action off the bench in Wednesday's win over the Dallas Mavericks, but will rest his back on Thursday night. With Anthony Edwards returning to action, Bones Hyland was limited to 12 minutes against Dallas. On Thursday, Hyland is likely to have a larger workload, but this is an uncomfortable matchup against a Thunder team that boasts a league-best 105.3 defensive rating.

Rudy Gobert Available Against Thunder

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) will be in the lineup on Thursday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The French giant played 21 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Dallas Mavericks and was initially listed as questionable for the second leg of a back-to-back. Gobert was quiet on Wednesday with six points and six rebounds, but he's had a strong month overall. Still, it won't be easy for Gobert to meet fantasy expectations on Thursday, as the Thunder give up the second-fewest fantasy points in the league to centers,

Anthony Edwards Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He is managing a right foot injury and could miss a second consecutive game. With Edwards out, Mike Conley started on Monday against the Golden State Warriors, but the veteran had a limited impact in 21 minutes. Both Jaylen Clark and Bones Hyland logged 25 minutes off the bench and will likely get extra burn again on Wednesday if Edwards doesn't play. Hyland had one of his best performances of the season on Monday night, finishing with 17 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and two steals.

Anthony Edwards Won't Play on Monday Night

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (foot) won't play in Monday's rematch with Golden State. He was on the court for Sunday's loss to the Warriors, amassing 32 points and 11 rebounds in 34 minutes. The 24-year-old has been battling a right foot injury, so the team is likely playing it safe, meaning he should be back on Wednesday in Dallas. With Edwards ruled out, Bones Hyland, averaging 11 points in three starts, is the favorite to replace him in the starting lineup.

Julius Randle Active Against Bulls

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Julius Randle (foot) has been upgraded to active for Thursday's clash with the Chicago Bulls. Randle is dealing with foot soreness and was added to the team's injury report late, but he has since been cleared to play. Fantasy managers should expect the 31-year-old to still be a big part of the team's offensive attack despite the foot pain. He's played in all 44 Wolves games this campaign, averaging 22.4 points, 5.4 assists, 7.0 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 33.7 minutes per outing.
