Woj: Minnesota's D'Angelo Russell (knee) expected to miss 4-to-6 weeks
According to Adrian Wojnarowski, Minnesota Timberwolves point guard D'Angelo Russell (knee) is expected to miss four-to-six weeks after arthroscopic surgery.
What It Means:
Russell will undergo a procedure to remove a "loose body in his left knee." Expect Ricky Rubio and Malik Beasley to play increased roles at the guard positions until Russell is cleared to return.
According to Rotogrinders' Court IQ in 472.7 minutes this season with Russell off the floor, Rubio is averaging 0.93 FanDuel points per minute while Beasley is averaging a 1.05 mark in a 435.0 minute sample size.
