On Monday, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Memphis Grizzlies will face off in Tennessee. For the game, the Timberwolves could be without one of their best playe

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert is good to go and was listed in the starting lineup for Monday afternoon's game at the Memphis Grizzlies despite being listed as questionable entering the game due to a right ankle sprain.

Rudy Gobert is dealing with a right ankle sprain, affecting his injury status for the Timberwolves' matchup against the Grizzlies.

Timberwolves coach Chris Finch wanted Edwards to catch the ball in the backcourt, giving him more of a running start toward the rim after he had taken 18 free throws in a rugged afternoon in FedExForum. But that was far too easy for the Grizzlies to cut off, which has been the problem for the Wolves this season.

Technically speaking, the Minnesota Timberwolves lost their game against the Memphis Grizzlies on the game’s last possession, when Anthony Edwards tried to take over the possession and hit a hero shot like he did against the LA Clippers last week.

They must also take Memphis’ Ja Morant into account ... So, when it comes to the question of if Rudy Gobert is playing today vs. the Grizzlies, the answer is questionable.
