An update from this afternoon's post-shoot post: Zach LaVine said before tonight's game against Charlotte that his right-knee tendinitis is feeling better and he plans to play.

Meanwhile, Shabazz Muhammad's morning optimism that he'll play because of a sore and swollen knee that has "flared up" isn't enough to get him back on the floor tonight.

He won't play and neither will veteran guard Brandon Rush,who says the sprained ligament in his right big toe is better, but not good enough to play yet.

Rush said he hopes to practice tomorrow and is aimed at playing against Thursday against Philadelphia.

I'd expect LaVine starts tonight, but expect to see a good bit of that big lineup with Nemanja Bjelica at the 3 and Andrew Wiggins at the 2 that Tom Thibodeau liked so much in Sunday's 125-99 victory over the Lakers.
