Unfortunately for those who have Randle on their fantasy rosters, he had another underwhelming performance on Wednesday. A 5-of-5 night from the foul line pushed him into double figures, and the rebounds and assists were solid. However, most fantasy managers who drafted Randle did so with the expectation of bigger scoring numbers. The Timberwolves have two more games in Week 20; hopefully, Randle finishes on a high note.

After a terrible showing in Tuesday’s loss to the Lakers, Edwards bounced back in a major way on Wednesday. He recorded his 36 points efficiently, shooting well over 50 percent from the field. The five turnovers were a negative, but fantasy managers will take that compared to the line Edwards recorded the night prior. The Timberwolves still have two more games in Week 20, starting with the Warriors on Thursday.

Barnes had a rough night at the office scoring-wise, as he shot 1-of-6 from three-point range. Category league managers can take solace in the rebounds, assists and steals. But this was a disappointing effort for someone who has ranked among the most valuable players in fantasy basketball this season, regardless of format. The Raptors return home for games on Friday and Sunday to complete Week 20.

The 25 points were the most in a game for him since February 28, when he dropped 27 in a win over the Wizards. Since the All-Star break, Quickley has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats.

Playing in New Orleans for the first time since being traded to the Raptors, Ingram received a deserved ovation at the conclusion of his tribute video on Wednesday. While productive, he was unable to do enough to keep the Raptors from losing both games of their quick road trip. After scoring 14, 11 and nine points in his last three appearances, Ingram got back on track in New Orleans. That’s good news for fantasy managers, as the Pelicans return home for their final two games of Week 20.

Like Julius Randle, Reid has seen his fantasy value decrease since the All-Star break. In eight games, he’s averaged 11.5 points while shooting 45.8 percent from the field and 46.2 percent from the foul line. Reid was solid against the Lakers, shooting just over 50 percent from the field, and he remains a valuable option in 12-team leagues. However, his value has taken a hit at the worst possible time, with some leagues already in their playoffs.

After going off for 41 points in the Timberwolves’ final game before the All-Star break, Randle has seemingly lost his mojo. With just one 20-point game to his credit since then, he’s averaged 14.4 points per game while shooting 40.2 percent from the field. And with Randle not bringing as much to the table in some of the other major statistical categories, his fantasy value has taken a significant hit. And with the Timberwolves falling to fifth in the West, they’d like to see Randle turn things around as well.

Edwards had a brutal night against the Lakers. The Timberwolves star shot 1-of-10 from beyond the arc, and his accuracy wasn’t much better inside of it, either. He did record a complete stat line in the defeat, but category league managers took a beating in the field-goal percentage category. Edwards will look to bounce back on Wednesday when the Timberwolves visit the Clippers.

The rookie will not travel for Toronto’s back-to-back to begin Week 20 in hopes of making additional strides with his recovery.

The Raptors’ bench, Mamukelashvili included, has struggled since the All-Star break. While his stat lines over the past two games have not been elite, Mamu reaching double figures in both is a step in the right direction.

After totaling 18 points and 14 rebounds in the Raptors’ first two games of Week 19, Poeltl finished the week with one of his best efforts since the All-Star break. The 7-footer has reached double figures in points three times since the break, with Sunday’s double-double being his second. Also of note: Poeltl played 30 minutes, and he’s logged 29 or more in three straight games for the first time this season. As long as his back doesn’t flare up, he can provide solid fantasy value in points, rebounds and field-goal percentage.

Barnes finished Sunday’s 30-point victory with a complete stat line, recording those numbers efficiently.

In addition to surpassing 8,000 points for his NBA career, Barrett recorded his first 30-point game of the season on Sunday.

One game removed from grabbing a season-high 19 rebounds, Gobert was active in all facets on Thursday. The 18 points were three more than his total in Minnesota’s prior three games, and he’s hit double figures in rebounds in all six games that he’s played since the All-Star break. Also, Gobert matched his season-high with five assists. The offensive production can be a struggle at times, as the 7-foot-1 center can become an afterthought on that end of the floor. However, that doesn’t prevent Gobert from offering a solid return in other areas.

Edwards, who was added to the Timberwolves’ injury report early Thursday afternoon, seemingly took a step back offensively after a dominant showing in Tuesday’s win over the Grizzlies.
