Top Nickeil Alexander-Walker News

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Quiet in 29 minutes

    Alexander-Walker recorded four points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 94-85 loss to the Lakers in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Mike Conley finished scoreless in 21 minutes, so the Timberwolves pivoted to Alexander-Walker, who didn't have much success either. Alexander-Walker was also quiet in the Game 1 win, scoring seven points on 2-of-9 shooting.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Plays hero in final seconds

    Alexander-Walker ended Tuesday's 140-139 double-overtime victory over the Nuggets with 26 points (8-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and two blocks in 45 minutes.

    The game had 21 lead changes and two overtime periods, but the win was sealed in the final seconds with two made free throws after a careless foul by Russell Westbrook. Westbrook fouled Alexander-Walker beyond the arc and purposely missed the third free throw to run out the final tenth of a second. Alexander-Walker won't turn many heads as a fantasy prospect, but Donte DiVincenzo's (suspension) absence allowed him some extra opportunities off the bench.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Productive off bench

    Alexander-Walker totaled eight points (4-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), nine rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes in Monday's 132-130 overtime loss to the Pacers.

    Alexander-Walker was effective on the floor Monday, making shots in the paint and hustling for rebounds. An early ejection of Rudy Gobert shortened the Timberwolves bench, which contributed to the 26-year-old playing his most minutes since March 5. In nine games in March, Alexander-Walker is averaging 8.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 23.6 minutes per game.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Pops for 20 off bench

    Alexander-Walker closed with 20 points (8-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 126-112 win over the 76ers.

    After being held scoreless in 26 minutes Sunday against Phoenix, Alexander-Walker bounced back and scored at least 20 points for the third time in his last 11 appearances (six starts). Over that stretch, the 26-year-old wing is averaging 13.4 points, 3.9 boards, 3.3 assists, 2.4 threes and 1.3 combined steals and blocks in 32.8 minutes a contest while shooting 40.6 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Retreats to bench Sunday

    Alexander-Walker will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Suns.

    Alexander-Walker will return to a bench role due to Anthony Edwards (suspension) being back in the lineup. In his last three games off the bench, Alexander-Walker has averaged 17.7 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 34.3 minutes per contest.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Starting Friday vs. Utah

    Alexander-Walker is in the Timberwolves' starting lineup against the Jazz on Friday.

    Alexander-Walker has come off the bench for the Wolves' last three games after starting in the five games prior, but he will return to the starting five for Friday's game due to the absence of Anthony Edwards (suspension). Alexander-Walker has averaged 16.6 points on 50.0 percent shooting (including 48.5 percent from three on 6.6 3PA/G), 4.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists over 35.2 minutes per game over his last five outings.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Drops 21 off bench Monday

    Alexander-Walker totaled 21 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block in 35 minutes off the bench during Monday's 131-128 overtime victory over the Thunder.

    The 26-year-old wing drained multiple threes for the fourth straight game as Alexander-Walker continues to step up with Donte DiVincenzo (toe) out of the lineup. Over the last 13 contests, Alexander-Walker has averaged 32.9 minutes a game while producing 13.0 points, 4.2 boards, 3.2 assists and 2.7 threes. DiVincenzo could return by the end of the week, however, and Alexander-Walker's usage and court time will likely shrink considerably once that happens.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Slotted to bench

    Alexander-Walker will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Thunder.

    Alexander-Walker logged 14 points (5-11 FG, 4-9 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 victory over Oklahoma City.

The sixth-year pro has started in each of the club's last four outings, averaging 11.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 31.8 minutes per contest.

    The 26-year-old received the starting nod with Anthony Edwards (hip) sidelined, tying Rob Dillingham for the team-high mark in assists.

The sixth-year pro has joined the starting five in three of the club's last six outings, and he has averaged 11.0 points, 3.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 three-pointers across 32.0 minutes per contest in that six-game span.

    Alexander-Walker took advantage of the 35 minutes he was on the floor for the Timberwolves in Wednesday's win against the Suns. The 26-year-old guard dropped a season-high 23 points while being red-hot from beyond the arc, hitting five of the 10 attempts from deep.

  • Timberwolves' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Cleared from injury report

    Alexander-Walker (leg) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Suns.

    After sustaining a lower left leg contusion during Monday's win over the Hawks, Alexander-Walker appears to be good to go for Wednesday to handle his usual role off the bench on the first leg of Minnesota's back-to-back. Through his last 11 games, the 26-year-old sharpshooter has averaged 6.1 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 threes in 22.6 minutes.
