The Timberwolves should be getting a member of their frontcourt back soon while another will see just how long he will be out.
Karl-Anthony Towns will get a second opinion on his left wrist injury that caused him to miss the Wolves' final game before the All-Star break. Meanwhile, Jake Layman has been cleared to practice following assessments from multiple foot specialists.
Layman has been out since tearing a ligament in his toe in a game Nov. 18 against Utah. He has missed the last 39 games since. The Wolves will re-evaluate Layman in a week to determine how close he is to playing.
