Randolph getting some run: Timberwolves forward Anthony Randolph has seen a bump in minutes over the last two nights, as the Wolves have been without star forward Kevin Love going down with a head injury on Wednesday against the Nuggets and then missing Thursday’s game against the Clippers. Randolph followed up Wednesday’s 28-point showing by nearly putting up a double-double on Thursday, as he scored 16 points on 7 of 12 shooting while grabbing nine rebounds. He also had three blocks, as the Wolves fell to the Clippers, 95-82. (Updated 04/12/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
This is starting to look eerily familiar as Randolph stepped up his game last year towards the end of the season as well. The lanky 22-year old averaged 14.9 points per game in the month of April last season, as Love was injured. Now that Love is down again, he is going to get more opportunities to perform. It all depends on how long Love is out, however if Love is forced to miss a significant amount of time, Randolph could provide nice value for Fantasy owners at the end of the season.
