MARCH 9, 2024 • Associated Press
Not on final injury report McLaughlin (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.

Good to go Friday Edwards (ankle) is good to go for Frida's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact Edwards tweaked his troublesome left ankle Thursday night and was carrying a questionable tag prior to this update, but he officially has the green light to start. He was dominant after returning to Thursday's game, dropping 44 points and also recording the game-winning block.

Iffy for Friday McLaughlin (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Cavaliers.
Impact McLaughlin continues to battle an illness but was upgraded to available against Indiana on Thursday. If McLaughlin is able to suit up against Cleveland, he could see increased playing time with Anthony Edwards (ankle) questionable and Monte Morris (hamstring) out.
MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Friday Morris (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact Morris left Thursday's win over Indiana due to left hamstring soreness and will be sidelined for at least one additional game, though the severity remains unclear. Jordan McLaughlin (illness) and Anthony Edwards (ankle) are both questionable, so the Timberwolves' backcourt depth behind Mike Conley may be tested versus Cleveland. If that's the case, Nickeil Alexander-Walker would likely see increased playing time.

Iffy against Cleveland Edwards is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Cavaliers due to left ankle soreness.
Impact Edwards tweaked his ankle in Thursday's contest but was able to finish the game en route to a dominant 44-point outing, including a game-winning block. If the star guard is unable to suit up against Cleveland, Nickeil Alexander-Walker will likely replace him in the starting five.
