Towns (wrist) tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Towns, who recently returned from a six-game absence due to a wrist injury, now will miss extended time with a positive coronavirus diagnosis. Towns' mother passed away due to complications with the virus, so this is a personal issue for him as well, as evidenced by his emotional social media post. While Towns is isolating and recovering, Naz Reid and Ed Davis will likely see the majority of center minutes for Minnesota.

Towns had 25 points (8-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists and two blocks in Wednesday's 118-107 loss to the Grizzlies. It was a tale of two halves for Towns, who scored 17 points in one half and grabbed 10 boards during the other. The performance marked his ninth consecutive double-double dating back to 2020. It shows Towns will likely remain the Timberwolves' top option despite playing just 14 games for them last year.
