Fantasy Impact:

Noel sustained the injury in Saturday’s win over the Hawks. He has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against Minnesota, and is currently day-to-day. Noel will be re-evaluated next week, and timetable for his return should be known after his evaluation. Darius Bazley should see an uptick in minutes with Noel sidelined.
