While Gobert was present for Wednesday’s practice, he did not participate; he only received treatment for his lower back. Randle was not with the team for the session and will not play on Thursday. Naz Reid will remain in the starting lineup. Due to his defensive ability, rookie Jaylen Clark will likely be a starter as well.

Lakers head coach JJ Redick bumped Jaxson Hayes from the starting unit and out of the rotation, which allowed Gobert to control the paint in this game from start to finish. He set new playoff career-highs for both points and rebounds to help Minnesota advance to the next round. Entering this game, Gobert had a total of 14 points and 25 rebounds during this series. Clearly, Game 5 was a huge step in the right direction for him, and he will look to carry this into the conference semifinals, where they will await the winner of the Rockets-Warriors series.

It was a rough shooting performance for Edwards, but he found other ways to impact this game. After scoring 43 points during Sunday’s win, Edwards nearly recorded a triple-double and added some steals to help Minnesota advance to the next round. He missed all 11 of his attempts from beyond the arc, and the team shot just 7-of-47 on three-pointers. Still, it was enough to end this series in just five games. They’ll play either the Rockets or Warriors in the second round.

After dealing with foul trouble in the first half, Randle came up big after the break to send the Timberwolves to the second round of the playoffs. He had an excellent series, averaging 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.2 triples to help guide Minnesota to a gentlemen’s sweep. If Randle continues to produce at this level, the Timberwolves will be difficult to beat. They’ll await the winner of the Rockets-Warriors series in round two.

Zubac wrapped up a breakout season with yet another double-double, but it wasn’t enough to keep the Clippers alive. He was a finalist for the Most Improved Player award, and he averaged 16.8 points, 12.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, all of which were career highs. He had a Yahoo ADP of 86.8 this season, but he will certainly go significantly earlier in drafts next season. He provided third-round value in nine-cat leagues this season.

Adams attempted a staggering 16 free throws in Game 6, as the Warriors intentionally fouled him on multiple occasions to close the gap. The veteran center made enough to keep Golden State at bay, and he has been more impactful than many may have expected before the series began. According to Hoop Informatics, Adams has been a +15 or better in the last three games. Houston has won the last two, and a similar effort from Adams in Sunday’s Game 7 may get the Rockets out of the first round for the first time since 2020.
