Minnesota's D'Angelo Russell (leg) remains sidelined on Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard D'Angelo Russell (leg) is ruled out for Friday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
Russell will miss his second straight game with left leg soreness. Expect Ricky Rubio to play more minutes in an underrated matchup against a Charlotte unit ranked 17th in FanDuel points allowed per game to point guards this season.
According to Rotogrinders' Court IQ in 414.9 minutes this season with Russell off the floor, Rubio is averaging 0.95 FanDuel points per minute and a 16.2% usage rate.
