That’s the good news, that shooting guard Rashad McCants’s right ankle
— sprained early in the Wolves’ game with Orland — has improved enough
that he hasn’t been ruled out of action in the coming two games. But

Thursday and was limited to some post-practice shooting…

Youngblood also writes that Theo Ratliff and Gerald Green should be available for Friday’s game against the Lakers.
Update:
From the Timberwolves site , McCants talks about his injury.
Q: On if he’s surprised about the quick recovery progress:
A: Definitely. Looking at it over and over again, it’s eerie, the way I
went down and all. But I’ve had many ankle sprains and this one
probably hurt the worst. I did a lot I didn’t expect to do today and it
feels even a whole lot better than it did yesterday. In the next couple
days, I hope to return.

Q: On seeing time during the road trip:
A: Definitely Sacramento, if not the Lakers. Just depends on how I feel
at shootaround tomorrow. Just a matter of icing and getting it ready
for tomorrow.
