Gorgui Dieng started alongside Nikola Pekovic on Sunday, finishing with nine points, seven boards, four assists and one block in 28 minutes.
Dieng remains a must-own player and his production isn't likely to decline too much with Pek healthy, so don't overreact to the occasional quiet game. He posted 14 & 15 in 35 minutes on Friday and should quickly strike a balance between these extremes, beginning in Oklahoma City in Monday.
Jan 25 - 8:47 PM
Gorgui Dieng went for 14 and 15 with three assists and a block over 35 minutes in Friday's loss to the Pelicans.
Dieng is going to be a hard guy to take off the court and Flip Saunders is already talking about playing he and Nikola Pekovic (13 points, nine boards, 21 minutes) together some. If anything, it's a buy low moment if Dieng's current owner thinks Pek is going to significantly change his season-long outlook.
Jan 24 - 3:00 AM
Gorgui Dieng was questionable to play on Tuesday due to illness, yet he piled up 10 points, six assists, three steals and two blocks in the Wolves' road win in Indiana.
Dieng anchored the defense, as usual, and it's hard to imagine Nikola Pekovic's eventual return having a big impact on his production -- he's posting fourth-round value in a very sustainable 29 minutes per game. Minnesota has to be ecstatic about his rapid development, especially since they have affordable team options for him in 2015-16 ($1.5 million) and 2016-17 ($2.4 million).
Jan 13 - 10:12 PM
Gorgui Dieng (illness) is available to play Tuesday vs. Indiana.
It's hard to see anyone else starting, so owners can go ahead and get Dieng active for Tuesday's game. However, he will have a difficult matchup against the Pacers, so that is something to consider for people playing daily leagues.

Ricky Rubio
Sidelined
Ricky Rubio (ankle) will not play vs. the Pelicans on Friday.
He's ramped up his activity in recent weeks and is nearing a return, but he still has soreness and the Wolves are being very cautious to avoid further damage. Mo Williams will continue to be a viable fantasy option until Rubio's return, at which point standard-league owners may have to look elsewhere for PG production.
Jan 23
2
Zach LaVine
Sidelined
Zach LaVine (elbow) will be available for Sunday's game vs. the Hawks.
With averages of just 8.1 points and 3.5 assists, LaVine can't be considered a viable option in most leagues. Leave him on the wire.
Jan 25

Mo Williams
SG
1
Kevin Martin
Sidelined
Kevin Martin (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Hawks.
Martin was listed as questionable earlier, but he is still dealing with some swelling in his wrist, so he will not play on Sunday. Robbie Hummel will draw another start on Sunday, but the true beneficiaries of Martin's absence remain Andrew Wiggins and Mo Williams.

Shabazz Muhammad
Sidelined
Flip Saunders said that Shabazz Muhammad is "still a ways away" from making a return, and he is scheduled to see a specialist next week.
Saunders also said he hopes to have Shabazz back before the All-Star break, but it's not clear exactly what role he'd be returning when Kevin Martin returns to the lineup. Muhammad's return would really hurt the value of Chase Budinger and Robbie Hummel.
Jan 23

Robbie Hummel
Sidelined
Robbie Hummel suffered a broken hand during Sunday's game against the Hawks, and he is expected to be out for 4-6 weeks.
It's a tough blow for Minnesota, as they can't seem to catch a break with injuries this season. By the time he returns to action in March, Minnesota will likely have Shabazz Muhammad (abdominals) and Kevin Martin (wrist) back into their rotation, so Hummel can be dropped in almost all leagues. Chase Budinger should pick up a few extra minutes off the bench in the meantime.
