Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ayo Dosunmu is out for Thursday's pivotal Game 6 clash against the Denver Nuggets due to a calf injury.

Dosunmu had been listed as questionable earlier Thursday. Veteran forward Kyle Anderson was already ruled out for Game 6 due to illness.

Dosunmu dropped a career-high 43 points off the bench in the T-Wolves' Game 4 win.

The fifth-year guard stepped into the starting lineup for Game 5 following injuries to Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo, tallying 18 points, four assists, and three boards in 38 minutes.

Dosunmu averaged 21.8 points, four assists, and 2.8 boards through the first five games of the playoffs.

Minnesota can close out Denver with a Game 6 victory.
