Okogie started at small forward and scored six points with five rebounds, two blocks and two steals in 21 minutes in Wednesday's season-opening win over Houston. Okogie got the start, but head coach Chris Finch said the fifth spot in the lineup will be based on matchups, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okogie got the nod as Minnesota's fifth starter, but the T-Wolves plan to rotate that spot with Taurean Prince and Jarred Vanderbilt as the top options, according to Krawczynski. Okogie drew praise for his defense Wednesday and looks set to get the most playing time when the T-Wolves don't need additional size in the front court. As more of a defensive specialist, he won't add much offense for fantasy purposes.
