Anderson registered seven points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 115-101 win over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Monday's game with a back injury, Anderson returned and produced a decent game in 24 minutes. The seven rebounds matched his highest total of the season. While the 29-year-old is averaging less than 20 minutes per game for just the second time in the last six seasons, he's been an efficient scorer and has made 52.6 percent of his shots and 40.0 percent of his three-point tries through 13 games.

Anderson (back) will play Wednesday at Indiana.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was a game-time call due to some back soreness, but he'll return to action after missing Monday's game against the Heat. The veteran has been a key piece off the bench for coach Chris Finch, averaging 23.3 minutes per contest over his last eight appearances.

Anderson (back) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday's clash with the Pacers, Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The fact that Anderson is being considered at all is an upgrade from the previous contest, when he was ruled out on the initial injury report. If he misses another game, Taurean Prince and Naz Reid are candidates to see some additional minutes again.

Anderson finished Monday's 120-107 loss to New York with nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 25 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson managed to contribute across the board in the loss, providing one of the very few bright spots for the Timberwolves. With Rudy Gobert in the health and safety protocols, Anderson has been able to slide into an increased role. While he doesn't offer a ton of upside, his ability to chip in across multiple categories does make him a name to consider in the short term.

Anderson ended with 16 points (6-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and three steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 129-117 win over the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson logged his first start of the season, sliding into the opening five with Rudy Gobert ruled out. It was a vintage performance from Anderson, contributing on both ends of the floor. Based on the result here, there is a good chance he sticks in the starting lineup until Gobert makes it back on the floor. If that is the case, he could be worth a look as a short-term addition in 12-team formats.

EDGE Analysis
Coach Chris Finch told reporters initially that either Naz Reid or Taurean Prince would start. Instead, it's Anderson getting the nod, marking his first start as a member of the Wolves. Anderson is averaging a muted 5.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.0 blocks per 36 minutes this season.
