Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jordan McLaughlin (calf) is out Monday against the Washington Wizards.
McLaughlin will miss a fourth straight game. Jaden McDaniels (illness) has also been ruled out again, so Austin Rivers might draw another start. Rivers played 29 minutes and scored 5 points with a triple, 2 boards, and an assist. Jaylen Nowell and Bryn Forbes could see more work off the Timberwolves' bench.
numberFire's models project Rivers for 28.1 minutes and 16.1 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has a $3,500 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Timberwolves' implied total (113.25) is No. 12 out of 20 active teams today.
