Giannis Antetokounmpo continues to be sidelined with a calf issue and has now missed five consecutive games. Recent reports suggest his recovery could take four to six weeks. It’s never good news when injuries take longer than expected, as teams want access to their full roster and having healthy players is always best.

Taurean Prince is another player sidelined, nursing a neck injury. However, there’s some good news for Kyle Kuzma, who missed the last game due to illness; he is expected to rejoin the lineup.

The visitors are expected to use the lineup of Kyle Kuzma, Myles Turner, Gary Trent Jr., AJ Green and Ryan Rollins.

Minnesota Timberwolves Starting Lineup and Depth Chart

As for the hosts, Minnesota has a nearly full clean bill of health, with Mike Conley being the only name on the injury report. He’s listed as questionable with an Achilles injury and has missed the last three games.

Coach Chris Finch is expected to go with the usual lineup of Julius Randle, Jaden McDaniels, Rudy Gobert, Donte DiVincenzo and Anthony Edwards. Finch will be coaching from the sideline after being ejected less than six minutes into the previous game against the Thunder. He was fined $35,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct toward the officials, which Edwards said he would help cover on Finch’s behalf.
