Martin (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

Analysis:

Shortly before Monday's game against the Jazz, it was announced that Martin would not be in the starting lineup due to a hamstring injury. He didn't end up getting into the game, as the Timberwolves went with a seven-man rotation featuring heavy doses of Zach LaVine, Lorenzo Brown and Chase Budinger. While Martin seemingly stands a chance to return for Wednesday's game, the Timberwolves are much better off losing the contest, though they may not acknowledge that reality. If he does play, Martin won't necessarily get minutes in the high-30s or low-40s the way he often has in recent games.
