D’Angelo Russell playing tonight with a wrap/strap thing (believe that’s the technical term) on his left shoulder that I’m sure you’ll see soon on the broadcast. – 7:07 PM

Tonight’s @MayoClinic Status Report:

Some perspective on Anthony Edwards having missed a handful of games with a knee injury (and being back now)…
Edwards was drafted 478 days ago, and played 4275 minutes in that time.
Zion Williamson was drafted 994 days ago, and played 2694 minutes in that time. – 6:18 PM

My @PrizePicks for Wolves-Magic
KAT under 1.5 made 3s
– 3pt volume is wayyy down
PatBev over 1.5 made 3s + over 10.5 points
– think he’ll set tone + should get 3pt looks against ORL zone
Anthony under 25.5 points + rebounds + assists
– no PatBev last time they played ORL – 5:56 PM

Anthony Edwards in IN tonight for the Timberwolves, so is Taurean Prince. Both were listed as questionable.
Jordan McLaughlin is OUT with groin tightness
Jarred Vanderbilt is a game-time decision, dealing with a quad contusion – 5:33 PM

Christopher Hine @ChristopherHine
Chris Finch says Jordan McLaughlin is OUT tonight. Vanderbilt game-time decision, Edwards and Prince in. – 5:32 PM

Just watched ORL’s last game. Completely different level of competition than the Wolves have been facing
– Continuity in their group (their starting 5 is fifth in minutes played this season)
– A team with real NBA size
– They’re healthy
– No. 1 defense in the NBA since All Star – 3:00 PM

JaVale McGee gave his thoughts on what happened with the fan incident in Orlando, sticking up for DA and fans crossing the line with players. Also said he feels the NBA has done a good job holding those unruly fans accountable: pic.twitter.com/YIc7OKvQlQ – 1:10 PM

JaVale McGee heard the fan call Deandre Ayton the “b-word” in Orlando.
He wasn’t letting that slide. #Suns pic.twitter.com/mM5YHl8p3R – 1:05 PM
