McDaniels (oblique) questionable for Christmas Day return vs. Nuggets

Jaden McDaniels (oblique) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Christmas Day game against the Nuggets. He was unable to play against the Knicks on Tuesday, but the questionable tag provides a chance for his return. If McDaniels is unable to play, Mike Conley would likely remain in the Timberwolves' starting lineup alongside Donte DiVincenzo. In nine games since December 2, McDaniels has averaged 14.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.1 threes, and 1.0 steals over 33.4 minutes per game.
