Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back with Minnesota
Alexander-Walker and the Timberwolves agreed to a two-year deal Friday, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Alexander-Walker was traded to the Timberwolves at the deadline last year and averaged 6.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 19.4 minutes across 29 appearances with his new team. He started four of Minnesota's five playoff matchups versus Denver, averaging 8.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 29.6 minutes during the postseason. Alexander-Walker figures to be a solid reserve guard behind Mike Conley and Anthony Edwards during the 2023-24 campaign.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Set to hit free agency
The Timberwolves didn't extend a qualifying offer to Alexander-Walker on Thursday, allowing him to become an unrestricted free agent, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Alexander-Walker could still re-sign with Minnesota, but the Timberwolves will not have the ability to match any offer he receives in free agency. The 24-year-old guard averaged 6.2 points, 1.8 assists and 1.7 rebounds in 15.0 minutes across 59 games in 2022-23.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Spot start yields little
Alexander-Walker amassed eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Friday's 120-111 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.
Alexander-Walker moved into the starting lineup Friday, replacing Taurean Prince, who shifted back the bench. Despite the promotion, Alexander-Walker could not put up meaningful production, which has plagued him throughout his career. The Timberwolves will look to salvage some pride in Game 4, although it appears highly unlikely the series will extend beyond five games.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Scoreless in 10 minutes
Alexander-Walker closed with zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and one rebound in 10 minutes during Monday's 119-115 victory over the Kings.
Alexander-Walker played his fewest minutes since Feb. 16 and was held scoreless for the third time this season when he's played at least 10 minutes. Across 12 March appearances, he's averaged 6.4 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 18.8 minutes per game, but barring numerous injuries, he can safely be left on the waiver wire in standard leagues.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Modest production in loss
Alexander-Walker registered four points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals over 19 minutes during Saturday's 122-107 loss to the Raptors.
Since the All-Star break (11 games), Alexander-Walker has averaged 8.0 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals-plus-blocks in 20.5 minutes. As long as Jaylen Nowell (knee) and Anthony Edwards (ankle) remain out, Alexander-Walker is a candidate for a solid reserve role, but his production has been too sporadic to trust on a nightly basis.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Questionable against Grizzlies
Alexander-Walker (recently traded) is questionable for Friday's game against Memphis.
Alexander-Walker was traded from the Jazz to the Timberwolves on Wednesday, but he still needs to pass his physical before he's cleared to make his team debut. Once he's available, Alexander-Walker will provide backcourt depth behind Mike Conley, who was also recently acquired by Minnesota via trade from the Jazz.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Dealt to Minnesota
The Timberwolves acquired Alexander-Walker from the Jazz on Wednesday in a three-team trade that also involves the Lakers, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Along with Alexander-Walker, the Timberwolves received Mike Conley and second-round picks in 2024, 2025 and 2026, while Utah takes back Russell Westbrook, Damian Jones, Juan Toscano-Anderson and a 2027 first-round draft pick. The Lakers, meanwhile, will add D'Angelo Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt and Malik Beasley. Alexander-Walker will provide some depth in the backcourt in Minnesota, but he may have a tough time earning reserve minutes behind Conley -- who replaces Russell as the Wolves' starting point guard -- and Anthony Edwards. The 24-year-old will primarily be competing with Jaylen Nowell, Austin Rivers and Jordan McLaughlin for playing time with the second unit.

Jazz's Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Back on bench Saturday
Alexander-Walker is not starting Saturday against the 76ers, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
As expected, Alexander-Walker heads back to the bench with Mike Conley back in the starting unit following a game off due to rest. Alexander-Walker provided two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two steals over 15 minutes during Friday's 112-108 victory over the Magic. His return to the bench shouldn't affect many fantasy rosters.

Jazz's Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Flops in spot start Friday
Alexander-Walker provided two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two steals over 15 minutes during Friday's 112-108 victory over the Magic.
Alexander-Walker replaced Mike Conley (rest) in the starting lineup Friday but was unable to produce anything close to a fantasy-relevant line. Outside of a few brief flashes, Alexander-Walker has been an afterthought when it comes to fantasy, sitting well outside the top 250 in standard leagues. There is really no reason to consider him a viable asset unless the Jazz hand him a larger role, which currently seems unlikely.

Jazz's Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Second straight in double figures
Alexander-Walker supplied 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 116-114 victory over the Cavaliers.
Alexander-Walker finished in double digits for his second straight game by shooting 50.0 percent from the field and knocking down free throws. He was noticeably more aggressive on the offensive end, as he hoisted up 10 attempts from the field for the first time since Dec. 13. The Virginia Tech product is averaging 7.1 points, 1.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists through 29 appearances this season.
