Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo, who had been playing much better of late, has been ruled out indefinitely with a big toe injury.

Donte DiVincenzo received an injury update ahead of the Timberwolves' upcoming game against the Nuggets on Saturday.

Timberwolves starting point guard Donte DiVincenzo hurt his toe during a Jan. 15 matchup against the Warriors and has been on the shelf ever since. He was initially ruled out indefinitely with what at the time was called a Grade 3 toe sprain.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo will be sidelined indefinitely after sustaining a Grade 3 sprain to his left big toe.

There's good news on that front. The Timberwolves released an update on DiVincenzo's injury on Friday, Jan. 24, noting that surgery will not be required and he will be re-evaluated in three weeks for a potential return after the All-Star break.

The Timberwolves led by nine in the fourth quarter in the Martin Luther King Jr. Day matinee, and were up 95-90 after Anthony Edwards canned a jumper with 4:30 to play. But Memphis stormed back to seize control via an 11-0 run over the ensuing 2:10 to go up six.

Just as Donte DiVincenzo was heating up, the injury bug bites. The Minnesota Timberwolves guard is out indefinitely due to a left big toe injury he sustained on Jan. 15 against Golden State, ESPN reported Monday. DiVincenzo, whose foot has been placed in a boot, will receive additional opinions on treatment options in the coming days.

DiVincenzo has a Grade 3 sprain in his left big toe after suffering the injury against the Golden State Warriors last week.

Anthony Edwards was questionable with an illness all the way up until tip of Minnesota Timberwolves vs Denver Nuggets, but he was able to go.

The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves are taking to the court for game two of their regular season series matchup on Saturday. The last time these two met, the Timberwolves walked away winning with a final score of 116-119.

Minnesota Timberwolves veteran guard Mike Conley has seen it before. His team, still searching for their new identity in the aftermath of the Julius Randle-Karl-Anthony Towns trade, has stumbled through the first half of the season to the tune of a 23-21 start to the season.
