4 years agoMinnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He played 21 minutes on Friday, so this is odd news considering Russell isn't banged up at all. Regardless, veteran guard Ricky Rubio (COVID-19) is expected to play and see an increased workload. He'd be a favorable DFS option without Russell available. Otherwise, Anthony Edwards and Jarrett Culver would handle a majority of the point guard minutes. Edwards is a better streaming option than Culver for Saturday's slate.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
