Timberwolves' Karl-Anthony Towns ready for membership in rare clubMINNEAPOLIS — Depending if those who decide such things are feeling generous in rounding numbers, Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony T...
Karl-Anthony Towns - Won't play SaturdayTowns (knee) is out for Saturday's matchup against the Kings, Dane Moore of 'The Dane Moore NBA Podcast' reports.
ImpactTowns left Thursday's win over the Lakers late in the fourth quarter, limping and holding his left knee. The injury is being described as just soreness, so it appears the big man has avoided something serious. Saturday's absence will mark Towns' first of the campaign. In his stead, more minutes should be available for Naz Reid, Kyle Anderson, Jaden McDaniels and other frontcourt options.

ImpactVanderbilt has appeared in eight of the Lakers' last nine games but has had a limited impact, averaging 0.9 points and 3.8 rebounds in 14.3 minutes per game. He'll likely be able to suit up once again Saturday.

Rui Hachimura - Dealing with wrist sorenessHachimura is questionable for Saturday's game against the Thunder due to left wrist soreness.
ImpactWith LeBron James (ankle) sidelined, Hachimura drew a spot start against Minnesota on Thursday, totaling 18 points, five rebounds and a steal in 33 minutes. However, he has emerged from that contest with a wrist injury and may be sidelined for the first time since Dec. 2. Hachimura is one of six Lakers listed on the initial injury report, so it's difficult to project what Los Angeles' lineup will look like.
