Timberwolves Keep Edwards Week-to-Week for Start of Spurs Series

Chris Finch’s week-to-week label for Anthony Edwards leaves Minnesota planning for short-term absences.

Overview

  • Head coach Chris Finch said Anthony Edwards is still week to week after an MRI showed a left knee hyperextension and bone bruise with no ligament damage.
  • Ayo Dosunmu is listed day to day with a calf injury, and his status for the series opener against San Antonio remains unclear.
  • Donte DiVincenzo ruptured his right Achilles and is out for the postseason, thinning Minnesota’s backcourt depth.
  • Reporting has set a minimum two-week absence for Edwards, which points to a possible mid-series return given the every-other-day playoff schedule.
  • Without Edwards, the Wolves expect bigger roles for Jaden McDaniels, Julius Randle, Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid against Victor Wembanyama’s rim protection.
