Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: All-around performance in win
Alexander-Walker logged a season-high 20 points (8-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt), seven assists, five rebounds, five steals and two blocks over 36 minutes in Thursday's 101-90 victory over the Jazz.
In his fifth consecutive start, Alexander-Walker was finally able to break out in the scoring department, especially in the absence of Anthony Edwards (hip). In those five starts, Alexander-Walker is averaging 9.0 points, 3.4 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 0.8 blocks across 29.4 minutes. As Edwards (questionable for Saturday) and Jaden McDaniels (ankle) continue to miss time, Alexander-Walker will likely see extended minutes and more starts until they return.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Solid performance in start
Alexander-Walker contributed seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one block across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 112-99 victory over the 76ers.
Alexander-Walker was inserted into the starting five with Jaden McDaniels (ankle) expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks. While Alexander-Walker didn't see a sizeable usage increase, he contributed on both ends and didn't commit a turnover. Fantasy managers should still consider adding Alexander-Walker, with Kyle Anderson making for a decent pickup option as well. When seeing at least 24 minutes last season, Alexander-Walker averaged 13.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Scores season-high mark Monday
Alexander-Walker racked up 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists across 33 minutes during Monday's 117-100 victory over New York.
Alexander-Walker delivered his best scoring output of the season, and it's worth noting he has scored in double figures in three of his last five appearances. The backup guard saw increased playing time in the second half of Monday's contest after Jaden McDaniels (ankle) left early, and if the latter is forced to miss additional time, the former could slide into the starting lineup for a few games.

Alexander-Walker totaled eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, three assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Monday's 114-109 overtime win over Boston.
Alexander-Walker set season highs in made three-pointers and points. The defensive-minded guard has carved out a solid secondary role in Minnesota's backcourt, but his production hasn't been worthy of consideration in most fantasy formats. At best, Alexander-Walker is a streaming option for managers in need of defensive production in category leagues.

Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Scores 11 points in preseason start
Alexander-Walker notched 11 points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 22 minutes in Thursday's 111-99 preseason win over the Mavericks.
Alexander-Walker started with Anthony Edwards (ankle) sidelined, and he delivered a solid stat line while leaving his mark on both ends of the court. Alexander-Walker will undoubtedly see minutes off the bench, but he's not expected to start regularly, particularly considering that Edwards' injury is not serious.

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.
