Anderson amassed two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist across 12 minutes during Monday's 119-114 loss to the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Due almost entirely to early foul trouble -- he picked up five fouls in roughly nine minutes of action -- Anderson saw his fewest minutes since leaving the second game of the season early with an injury. Over his past two contests, he's totaled just two points (1-10 FG), seven rebounds and three assists after he averaged 12.0 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.4 assists in 32.4 minutes across his previous five appearances. Anderson's recent slump is certainly concerning, but playing time hasn't been the issue. Over his last 11 games, he's averaging north of 32 minutes per contest. Barring another foul-plagued night, Anderson's workload should return to its normal level Wednesday at New Orleans.

Anderson logged 20 points (8-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block across 34 minutes during Thursday's 128-126 victory over the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was tremendous in the victory, continuing what has been an exceptional run over the past two weeks. Despite scoring only 11.1 points per game over that period, he has been able to put up second-round value in 12-team nine-category formats. While he's headed for some regression considering that he's shooting an unsustainable 63.5 percent from the field over that two-week stretch, he's a clear must-roster player in category leagues at the moment.

Anderson racked up 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 11 rebounds, eight assists, one block and four steals in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 loss to Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson's value spiked initially when Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) was injured, but with Rudy Gobert (groin) also sidelined, Anderson's fantasy vale has gone through the roof. The veteran was unable to break away from the crowded depth chart in Memphis, but his outstanding play in relief will win him more minutes with the Timberwolves, even after Minnesota's big men return to action.

Anderson posted 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 11 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Monday's 126-125 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson posted his second career triple-double Monday night. His 11 rebounds were a season high, and it was one of his larger usage games with double-digit shot attempts for just the fifth time all year. While he doesn't typically score a ton of points, the veteran forward adds value across the board, especially lately. Anderson is averaging 10.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks in the month of January.

Anderson finished with four points (2-2 FG, 0-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals across 28 minutes in Saturday's 110-102 win over the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson's output on the offensive end was nothing to write home about, but his production in the defensive categories was a welcome sight for fantasy managers who streamed him in. Though he won't be counted on to shoulder heavy usage in the continued absence of Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) and potentially Rudy Gobert -- who exited early Saturday with a groin injury -- Anderson should be locked into ample minutes while he's healthy and is capable of offering solid across-the-board contributions.

Anderson (illness) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was deemed a game-time call, but he will reclaim his place in the starting lineup. He's averaging 10.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game as a starter.

Anderson is considered a question mark for Saturday's game versus the Cavaliers due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson returned from illness to play Friday, but it's possible he's not entirely over the bug yet. Still, he hasn't been ruled out, so it will be worth monitoring his status ahead of the 8 PM ET tipoff. If Anderson can't go, Austin Reaves seems the likely option to slot back into the starting five.

Anderson posted 10 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block across 32 minutes during Friday's 121-116 win over Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson returned from a one-game absence, moving straight back into the starting lineup. While the playing time was certainly encouraging, the production was not so inspiring. Since Karl-Anthony Towns went down with a calf injury, Anderson has been a regular in the opening unit, putting up top-100 value over the past month. While he typically scores fewer than 10 points per night, his ability to contribute across multiple categories makes him a viable asset, even in 12-team formats.

Anderson (illness) will play and start in Friday's game against the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson will return from a single-game absence due to illness to face off against the Suns on Friday. His availability knocks Austin Rivers out of the starting unit and could spell fewer minutes for Taurean Prince and Naz Reid.

Anderson (illness) will be a game-time decision for Friday's meeting with Phoenix, Dane Moore reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson missed Wednesday's game with a non-COVID illness and is at risk of missing a second consecutive tilt Friday. His status will likely come down to how he feels going through pre-game warmups. If he sits, Austin Rivers would likely remain in the starting five.
