Donte DiVincenzo Surges On Sunday Afternoon
Donte DiVincenzo scored a game-high 39 points in Sunday's loss to Indiana. He added four rebounds, two steals, and one assist. With OG Anunoby (hamstring) and Josh Hart (abdomen) plagued by injury, DiVincenzo stepped up in a big way, going 11-for-21 from the field and 9-for-15 from deep. However, it wasn't enough, with the Knicks failing to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. Nonetheless, the 27-year-old is coming off his best season, averaging a career-high 15.5 points with 3.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists. He also appeared in 81 games after logging 72 in Golden State last season. With that said, DiVincenzo's durability and increased production should spark the interest of fantasy managers heading into the 2024-25 campaign.

Donte DiVincenzo Upgraded To Available
Donte DiVincenzo (toe) will be active on Friday against the Utah Jazz. He returned from a 19-game absence on Thursday against the Los Angeles Lakers, posting nine points, five rebounds, six assists, and one steal in 23 minutes. Minnesota initially had DiVincenzo listed as questionable on Friday's injury report. DiVincenzo took only six shots -- all from downtown -- in Thursday's game, making half of them, but he should have a bigger say in the offense on Friday night, as Anthony Edwards (suspension) will not be in the lineup.

Donte DiVincenzo Considered Questionable Against Jazz
Donte DiVincenzo (toe) has drawn a questionable tag for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz due to the toe injury that kept him out for over a month. Thursday was his first game back since January 15, so it wouldn't come as a big surprise if the Timberwolves decide to ease him back and let him sit the back part of a back-to-back. If he doesn't suit up, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Terrence Shannon Jr. should see plenty of minutes since Anthony Edwards (suspension) is also out. They both are likely available in a wide range of fantasy leagues, but Shannon has shown a lot of promise, especially after 25 points, five rebounds, and two assists on Thursday.

Donte DiVincenzo May Return To Timberwolves Lineup Thursday
Donte DiVincenzo (toe) has picked up a questionable tag ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He seems to be nearing his return to the lineup after practicing on Wednesday. DiVincenzo has been sidelined for 19 games due to a toe sprain. Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker have taken on expanded roles with DiVincenzo out and will lose fantasy value when he returns. DiVincenzo replaced Conley in the starting lineup in early January, averaging an impressive 17.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists, and 1.5 steals.
