Nickeil Alexander-Walker put up 26 points (8-16 FG, 5-11 3PT, 5-7 FT) to go with eight assists, seven rebounds, and two blocks in Tuesday's 140-139 2OT win over the Denver Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact

Alexander-Walker saw 45 minutes of action off of the bench on Tuesday. He did great with his increased opportunities, finishing with 26 points and falling just three rebounds and two assists shy of a triple-double. He also tied for the best +/- on the team at +14, so he was one of Minnesota's most important players in this big win over the Nuggets.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker totaled eight points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3PT, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists in the Timberwolves' 124-109 win over the Suns.

Fantasy Impact

Walker delivered a balanced stat line in limited action, continuing to play a valuable bench role. While his minutes fluctuate, he’s worth watching in deeper leagues or as a defensive-minded streamer when the rotation opens up.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 20 points (8-11 FG, 3-6 3P, 1-1 FT) with three rebounds, three assists, and two steals in the Wolves' 126-112 win over the 76ers on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Alexander-Walker bounced back nicely after being shutout against the Suns on Sunday. He has had a solid run recently, scoring 12 or more points in 7 of his last eight games. Before that, it was tough to consider starting him, as he could just as easily score four points as he would 10. It's possible he's found some consistency now, and could be startable the rest of the season.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker provided a solid scoring effort in Sunday’s loss to Oklahoma City, finishing with 18 points (6-of-12 FG, 4-of-7 3PT, 2-of-2 FT), two rebounds, and two assists in 34 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

Alexander-Walker has now scored at least 14 points in four of his last six games, showing flashes of scoring potential. However, his fantasy upside remains limited playing behind Anthony Edwards. Injuries to Edwards (who stayed in the game) and Jaylen Clark (who exited with a neck injury) could lead to increased opportunities for Alexander-Walker in Monday’s rematch against the Thunder. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should monitor his role moving forward.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-5 3PT) and grabbed five rebounds in Friday's 121-115 loss to the Houston Rockets.

Fantasy Impact

Minnesota suffered a loss at the hands of the Rockets on Friday, but not much blame can be placed on Alexander-Walker for that, as he scored an efficient 16 points on the night and limited mistakes. His ceiling is lower now that Mike Conley is healthy and back on the court for the Timberwolves.
