Derrick Rose

Derrick Rose (ankle) will play for the Wolves against the Rockets on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Rose played well in his last game out there but with the All-Star break on the horizon it would be surprising to see Rose, just coming off injury, playing big minutes tonight. Still, with Andrew Wiggins (illness) out, Rose could see a few extra shots.

Derrick Rose finished with 22 points on 9-of-18 shooting (0-of-2 from deep, 4-of-5 from the charity stripe), and had six assists, one rebound, one block, and one steal while logging 25 minutes in the Timberwolves' 130-120 win over the Clippers on Monday night.

Fantasy Impact

After missing three games, Rose retuned on Monday and didn't miss a beat. As long as he is healthy Rose is worth starting in nearly all leagues.

Derrick Rose has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Orlando Magic with an ankle injury. Tyus Jones is also out leaving Jeff Teague (questionable) and Jerryd Bayless to soak up point guard minutes.

Fantasy Impact

Of course, if Teague does return it pushes Bayless out of consideration as a streamer and daily option. But if he's out, its a plus matchup on NBA trade deadline day.

Derrick Rose (ankle) has been ruled out for Minnesota's matchup with Memphis on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Rose tweaked the ankle on Saturday and did not practice on Monday. Jeff Teague will also be out so expect Jerryd Bayless to have big minutes. Rose could be in for a multi-game absence here so if Bayless is available on the wire snatch him up for this week.

Derrick Rose (ankle) was not a participant at Minnesota's practice on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Rose has been dealing with ankle issues all season so an absence in one part of their Thurs-Fri back-to-back is probable. Rose played on Saturday but it's unclear if his absence from Monday's practice was because of a setback or not. Stay tuned.
