Rotoworld Player News

Terrence Shannon

MIN Guard-Forward #4

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Terrence Shannon Jr. (hip) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Rockets.

Shannon did not play in Monday’s win over the Bucks, which moved Jaylen Clark up a spot in the Timberwolves’ rotation. That may remain the case on Wednesday if Shannon can’t play, but Clark shouldn’t be rostered in redraft leagues.
Ayo Dosunmu

MIN Guard #13

Ayo Dosunmu had 19 points (8-of-18 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 12 rebounds, eight assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer against the Bucks on Monday.

While LaMelo Ball erupted for 34 points in this one, Dosunmu may be the real fantasy winner from Anthony Edwards (knee) having to miss time with an injury. Dosunmu had a full stat line and was two assists shy of a triple-double in the win over the Bucks. He should be rostered in all formats at this point.
LaMelo Ball

MIN Guard #1

LaMelo Ball had 34 points (12-of-21 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and six three-pointers in the Timberwolves’ 112-100 victory over the Bucks on Monday.

Ball’s 34 points are the most he’s had in a game with the Timberwolves so far. With Anthony Edwards (knee) sidelined, the offensive burden undoubtedly falls on LaMelo. He’s due for some more performances like this one while Edwards remains out.
LaMelo Ball

MIN Guard #1

LaMelo Ball (wrist) is available for Monday’s game against the Bucks.

Despite a right wrist contusion, Ball is available to play on Monday. He’ll take on his usual role as the starting point guard, and the Timberwolves will need a more efficient Ball as they continue without Anthony Edwards (knee). He’s joined in the starting lineup by Ayo Dosunmu, Jaden McDaniels, Jonathan Kuminga and Rudy Gobert. Gobert’s return pushes Joan Beringer to the bench.
Terrence Shannon

MIN Guard-Forward #4

Terrence Shannon Jr. (hip) is out for Monday’s game against the Bucks.

Shannon won’t play on Monday after initially being listed as questionable. His absence frees up minutes for Cody Williams, who was a DNP-CD on Saturday against the Spurs.
LaMelo Ball

MIN Guard #1

LaMelo Ball (wrist) and Terrence Shannon (hip) are questionable for Monday’s matchup with the Bucks.

With Anthony Edwards (knee) and Donte DiVincenzo (Achilles) sidelined, the Wolves’ backcourt could be thin on Monday. If Ball and/or Shannon sit out, more minutes would be available for Bones Hyland and Ayo Dosunmu.
Rudy Gobert

MIN Center #27

Rudy Gobert (back) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against the Bucks.

Gobert is back after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Spurs. His return means Joan Beringer will head back to the bench after starting on Saturday.
Jonathan Kuminga

MIN Forward #24

Jonathan Kuminga accounted for 19 points (8-of-19 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Spurs.

After attempting just six shots in Friday’s win over the Clippers, Kuminga got up 19 on Saturday. His percentage wasn’t great, but the shot volume should be there while the Timberwolves await Anthony Edwards’ return from knee surgery. The same goes for Jaden McDaniels, who finished Saturday’s defeat with 19 points, three rebounds, three assists, two steals and two three-pointers.
Joan Beringer

MIN Forward #19

Joan Beringer finished Saturday’s loss to the Spurs with 12 points (4-of-8 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, two assists and one steal.

Beringer made his first start of the season on Saturday, as Rudy Gobert (back) was out. Unfortunately for the second-year center, he had to match up with countryman Victor Wembanyama. Beringer played 34 minutes, and his points and rebounds production were solid. If Gobert remains out for Monday’s matchup with the Bucks, that will likely be a more manageable assignment for Beringer.
Ayo Dosunmu

MIN Guard #13

Ayo Dosunmu recorded 27 points (11-of-17 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds, three assists, three steals and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Spurs.

Since moving into the Timberwolves’ starting lineup after Anthony Edwards’ knee injury, Dosunmu’s scoring output has increased with each game. His 27 points on Saturday were a season high, and he was highly efficient. Add in the rebounds and steals, and this was a good night for managers rostering Dosunmu. The Timberwolves play four games next week, starting with the Bucks on Monday.
