Minnesota Timberwolves center Gorgui Dieng replaced Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) in the starting lineup for Wednesday's clash with the Pelicans, and he played well in his third start of the season, finishing with 13 points and eight rebounds. He shot 5-for-7 from the field and even nailed one three-point attempt. There's a back-to-back set coming up for Minnesota, and it's unclear if Towns will feature in those games, so Dieng could be set for a couple of more starts. He's averaging 13.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 21.7 minutes as a starter this season. The Wolves are back in action on Friday against Denver, who have a top-class defense, but they struggle against centers.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller

Center Gorgui Dieng is set to rejoin the San Antonio Spurs for the 2022-23 season, per Shams Charania of The Athletic. Dieng appeared in 16 games off the bench for San Antonio in '20-21, before playing last year with Atlanta, where he averaged a career-low 8.4 minutes per outing. With Jakob Poeltl holding down starting center duties for the Spurs, Dieng faces an uphill path to garnering significant minutes in the frontcourt, while Zach Collins stands to lead the team's second unit on the glass. The 32-year-old native of Senegal has proven to be a solid per minute contributor when utilized, but he can remain on the waiver wire in all formats until he sees his playing time trend upward.--Jesse Borek

Atlanta Hawks center Gorgui Dieng (hand) exited Saturday's preseason win over the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran suffered a sprained right hand and didn't return. Normally, Dieng's ailments over the years haven't impacted fantasy managers much. Yet, with Clint Capela (Achilles) and Onyeka Okongwu (shoulder) expected to miss time during the regular season, the veteran was projected to see an increased role early on. The team will likely provide an update on his health ahead of its next exhibition against Miami. However, if Dieng misses time moving forward, it may force John Collins to get some run in the middle, while Danilo Gallinari could see an uptick in minutes at the four.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
