Impact Nowell continues to deal with a left ankle sprain but has been able to play through the issue in each of the last two games. Across that span, he averaged 15.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 24.0 minutes per game. It appears likely that he'll be able to suit up again Wednesday.

Scores 14 points off bench Nowell ended with 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Tuesday's 112-110 win over the Knicks.

Impact Nowell landed on the injury report before the contest with a sprained left ankle, but it didn't appear to limit him, as he scored in double figures for the second straight game. Over his last two contests, the 2019 second-round pick has totaled 31 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one block while shooting 52.4 percent from the field and 44.4 percent from three. It may be difficult for Nowell to maintain this type of production from a reserve role, but fantasy managers should continue to keep an eye out for the budding young prospect.

Good to go Tuesday Nowell (ankle) is available Tuesday against the Knicks.

Listed as probable for Tuesday Nowell is listed as probable for Tuesday's contest against the Knicks with a left ankle sprain.

Impact Nowell played 25 minutes (his most since Jan. 3) and scored 17 points during Sunday's 119-99 win over the Warriors, but he presumably picked up an ankle injury during the contest as well. The 2019 second-round pick will likely be available, but the Timberwolves may elect to be cautious with the youngster considering Tuesday is the start of a back-to-back.

Flashes for 17 points in win Nowell had 17 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block in 25 minutes during Sunday's 119-99 win over the Warriors.

Impact The Wolves started Patrick Beverley and D'Angelo Russell in the backcourt, as usual, but coach Chris Finch leaned more heavily than usual on Nowell and Malik Beasley (24 minutes), who combined to outscore the starting guards 33 to 17. Nowell looks to be picking up some confidence of late, and he's beginning to finally have more consistency in his nightly role.
