Dante Cunningham is expected to play
Dante Cunningham - F - Minnesota Timberwolves
Jan. 19, 2013 - 6:55 PM ET

Interim coach Terry Porter said he expects Dante Cunningham (illness) to be able to play against the Rockets on Saturday.

The Wolves need him badly with Nikola Pekovic out and very thin with only Greg Stiemsma as their only true center. Cunningham will get minutes at the center spot and is worth owning in some deeper formats. Derrick Williams may see a ton of minutes at power forward while newly-signed Chris Johnson could be sprung into action, too.
