Notches 12 points Conley provided 12 points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Sunday's 114-106 loss to Golden State.
Impact Conley is averaging only 25.5 minutes per game this season, but he's still managed to keep his value afloat in fantasy formats. Through his first 19 regular-season appearances, he's on pace to post 10th-round value in nine-category formats with 9.1 points, 4.4 assists, 2.9 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.0 three-pointers.

Jace Frederick: The one who righted the Timberwolves' ship? Mike Conley The veteran has been so instrumental for Minnesota, it’s been difficult for Wolves coaches to give him a break.

Season-high 16 points in return Conley racked up 16 points (4-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound, four assists and two steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-104 loss to the Kings.
Impact Making his return to Minnesota's lineup after missing three games with a toe injury, Conley was able to log his usual allotment of playing time while posting a season-high 16 points. The veteran floor general has been up and down during his 18th season, but he remains a modest source of threes, steals and assists for fantasy managers who can handle the 37-year-old's sporadic absences at this stage of his career. Conley is shooting a career-low 32.4 percent from the field through 14 games this season, but he's also averaging 4.7 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.8 triples per game.

Available to play Conley (toe) is available to play Wednesday against the Kings.
Impact After missing the past three games for Minnesota, Conley is no longer appearing on the injury report. Donte DiVencenzo will likely head back to the second unit with this news, while Rob Dillingham could lose some steam after two solid outings in a row.

Out once again Tuesday Conley (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Conley will miss his third consecutive contest due to a sprained toe on his left foot. With the veteran point guard sidelined, Donte DiVincenzo will draw the start once again. Conley's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Kings.
NOVEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Tuesday Conley (toe) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Conley is in danger of missing his third straight game due to a sprained toe on his left foot, but coach Chris Finch said the veteran point guard remains day-to-day. If he's sidelined, Donte DiVincenzo and Nickeil Alexander-Walker would be candidates for increased roles again.
NOVEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Sunday Conley (toe) is out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Impact Conley is dealing with a sprained toe on his left foot, and while the injury shouldn't turn into a long-term absence, it'll be enough to sideline him for a second straight game. His absence will probably translate to Nickeil Alexander-Walker remaining as the starting point guard, while Donte DiVincenzo will likely see an uptick in playing time off the bench as well. Conley's next chance to play will come against the Rockets on Tuesday.

Won't suit up Thursday Conley (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Raptors.
Impact Conley is dealing with a sprained toe on his left foot, though the injury shouldn't turn into a long-term absence. With the veteran point guard out, Nickeil Alexander-Walker will get the starting nod with Donte DiVincenzo likely seeing an uptick in playing time off the bench. Conley's next chance to play will come Sunday against Boston.
NOVEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with toe sprain Conley is questionable for Thursday's game against the Raptors due to a left great toe sprain.
Impact This is a new injury for the veteran, whose only absence this season was attributed to rest purposes during the second night of a back-to-back set. Donte DiVincenzo (back) is also questionable, so if both guards are sidelined, Nickeil Alexander-Walker would likely be in store for a major workload against Toronto.
NOVEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE
Not on injury report Conley (rest) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the Kings.
Impact The veteran floor general was rested for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, but he should be ready to go Friday and is likely to recover his place in the starting lineup. Conley is averaging 7.4 points and 4.7 assists per game this season, and his expected return to the lineup will likely send Nickeil Alexander-Walker back to a bench role.

Resting Wednesday Conley won't play in Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to rest purposes.
Impact Conley has failed to score in double figures in three straight games, playing less than 24 minutes in each of those contests. After a disappointing loss to Portland on Tuesday, the veteran point guard will rest during Wednesday's rematch, allowing Donte DiVincenzo, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Rob Dillingham to likely see increased roles. Conley should be back in action Friday in Sacramento.

Posts double-double Thursday Conley registered 14 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and 11 assists across 26 minutes during Thursday's 135-119 win over the Bulls.
Impact Conley delivered his best game of the season Thursday after notching season-high marks in both points and assists. Even though the veteran is a capable starter and an excellent distributor, this was his first game with more than six dimes in the campaign, which might lead to believe this kind of output isn't really sustainable on a long-term basis. The numbers aren't flashy by any means, but Conley has now scored at least nine points in five of his last six games.
