Lakers' Dwight Howard (personal) expected back Wednesday
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Dwight Howard (personal) is not on the injury report for Wednesday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Howard missed Monday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors due to a family emergency. His return could result in fewer minutes in the frontcourt for Wenyen Gabriel, Trevor Ariza, and Carmelo Anthony. LeBron James (knee, questionable) should also see less playing time at center upon Howard's return.
numberFire's models currently project Dwight for 9.9 minutes and 11.6 FanDuel points on Wednesday.
