Impact Clark was efficient in limited chances Sunday and was the only Minnesota bench player to score in double figures. He was far more involved after logging only five minutes Saturday against Miami, as he ended up shouldering his heaviest workload of the 2025-26 campaign. Clark hasn't been able to consistently contribute so far this season for the T-Wolves, but this was certainly a step in the right direction.

Impact For the fourth game in a row, Clark saw minutes in teens off the bench. This was his third solid showing in a row, but until the minutes creep up even more, his fantasy appeal is going to be limited to the deepest of fantasy leagues.
