Likely to play through illness
Tyson (illness) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis
Tyson is under the weather, but his illness doesn't appear to be severe enough for him to be in serious jeopardy of missing Thursday's road game. If he were to miss time, De'Andre Hunter, Lonzo Ball and Nae'Qwan Tomlin would all be in line for more minutes off the bench.

Added to injury report
Tyson (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Indiana.
