Jordan McLaughlin (knee) could be out of the lineup again on Thursday, with the team listing him as questionable for an encounter with Dallas. He made his first appearance in a month on Monday versus New Orleans, but McLaughlin continues to nurse an MCL sprain in his right knee. The 27-year-old logged eight minutes against the Pelicans and has played under 30 total minutes in six appearances this season, so the Timberwolves should be perfectly fine, even if McLaughlin can't play.

Jordan McLaughlin (knee) will return for Friday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 27-year-old hasn't played in a month, missing 14 games because of an MCL sprain. There's a chance he will see fewer minutes in his first game back. However, McLaughlin hadn't played well before going down with the injury, so he wasn't expected to contribute much anyway.

Jordan McLaughlin (knee) has been dealing with a right MCL sprain and hasn't played since November 6. He's officially listed as questionable for the team's game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, so it seems he's trending in the right direction. Right now, the Timberwolves have the best record in the league, and McLaughlin wasn't seeing too much playing time as it is. His value will likely get a boost when others need a rest or if someone in the backcourt gets injured down the road. He may take some minutes away from
Nickeil Alexander-Walker and
Shake Milton though.

Jordan McLaughlin (calf) is playing Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. McLaughlin has not seen game action since December 9th after injuring his calf, but will return to the court Sunday with a minutes restriction. McLaughlin should resume his normal role as backup point guard once he is up to speed.
Austin Rivers and
Bryn Forbes should see a dip in minutes moving forward.
