Brad Miller (knee) will not play on Wednesday. The 35-year-old practiced fully Tuesday, but still isn't quite ready to return. He's expected to fill a reserve role when he does return.

Brad Miller (knee) practiced in full Tuesday. It was likely a light practice after the Wolves played a late game Monday night. The 35-year-old Miller is going to need a lot of time to get his body into playing shape after another knee surgery. He's not a threat to the rotation yet.

Brad Miller (knee) is nearly ready to return to practice, but there is no timetable for his return. "He practiced for short periods the other day, but his conditioning has a long way to go," Rick Adelman said. "A lot of it is just the strength in his leg, the strength that surrounds that [left] knee." Miller is a long-shot to be able to withstand 15-plus mpg, but reunited with Adelman he'll be worth a quick peek when he returns.

Wolves C Brad Miller (knee) is targeting a mid-to-late January return to practice. Miller's time being a fantasy asset are over, as he's good for no more than 20 minutes in a game. If he ever played 30, we'd be concerned for his health. Even in a 30-team league, Miller is a guy to pass on.

Brad Miller was traded to the Wolves in a deal centered around No. 20 pick Donatas Motiejunas during Thursday's draft. There is no guarantee that he makes it back onto the floor next year, though he could certainly be used by a number of teams in the league needing a backup big guy to play 10-15 good minutes. With just one more year of guaranteed money on his contract, it also wouldn't be surprising if he got bought out.
