No Shootaround For Anthony Edwards Thursday
7 months agoMinnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (hip) was not seen at morning shootaround ahead of Thursday's game versus the Utah Jazz. Teammate Kyle Anderson said the Wolves are prepping as if Edwards won't be playing on Thursday. Edwards remains formally listed as doubtful on Minnesota's official injury report, but it's becoming increasingly apparent that he won't be active against the Jazz. The dynamic 22-year-old suffered a right hip pointer on the brunt of a scary fall following a dunk attempt in the third quarter of Tuesday's eventual 106-103 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, but he thankfully avoided a more significant injury. Edwards should be deemed day-to-day leading into Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets. The aforementioned Kyle Anderson should see more run with Edwards likely out against Utah, while Karl-Anthony Towns and Mike Conley should dominate playmaking responsibilities.
