Jefferson's minutes have been on a limit in part set by the team's medical staff, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Head coach Kurt Rambis got permission to increase his playing time past 25 minutes on Friday. Meanwhile, Jefferson says he's rusty in his return from offseason knee surgery. "My timing is still not there," Jefferson said. "Every shot I took tonight, I've made those shots before. I didn't make them tonight. I just have to keep working on my shot at practice and after practice." [...]

As expected, Al Jefferson will play in the Timberwolves season opener on Wednesday despite dealing with an Achilles injury for the past few weeks, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Our View: He could be a bit limited, but a limited Jefferson is better than most healthy players. Get him into your starting lineup.

The Minneapolis Star-Tribune is reporting that T-Wolves' center Al Jefferson says there is "no doubt" that he will play in Wednesday's season-opener. Jefferson is dealing with an Achilles injury.

Our View: Jefferson said the team will continue to monitor his injury, but he will go no matter what on Wednesday. This is good news for fantasy owners, as Jefferson should be a force as long as he is on the floor.

Nathan Jawai has been dealt from Dallas to Minnesota in exchange for a future second-round draft pick, according to ESPN. The trade is awaiting league approval.

Our View: Minnesota is in need of depth with both Al Jefferson and Kevin Love on the shelf with injuries. Jawai would help in their frontcourt rotation, but his fantasy value looks to remain limited.

Jefferson out indefinitely

Al Jefferson is out indefinitely with tendinitis in his Achilles tendon, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Our View: Little is known about the severity of his condition, or when he might be able to return. He played just six minutes in the Timberwolves preseason game last Saturday. For now, it doesn't sound season-threatening, but it is to the point where you should avoid him in the earlier rounds of your draft. It just isn't clear how healthy he will be this year.

Jefferson has Achilles injury

Source (fanball.com) (PF - min) | 0 comments.

Al Jefferson appears to be dealing with tendinitis in his Achilles tendon, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Our View: The team is not concerned yet, calling it an "irritation," but he was forced to leave their preseason game in the fourth quarter on Saturday night, so it's clear there is at least a little something to it. Center Kevin Love is already dealing with a broken hand this preseason, so if Jefferson is forced to miss any time the T-Wolves will be incredibly thin up front.
