Timberwolves List Anthony Edwards as Questionable for Rockets Game

Minnesota signals a cautious ramp-up before the playoffs after weeks of managing the All-Star’s right knee pain.

Overview

  • Edwards, listed as questionable Friday for Houston, has missed 10 of the past 12 games while managing right knee pain.
  • Reporting identifies the issue as patellofemoral pain syndrome, a non-structural “runner’s knee” problem treated with rest and a slow return to full activity.
  • Head coach Chris Finch has said he hopes Edwards can log a game or two before the regular season ends to regain conditioning.
  • With the No. 6 seed secured, Minnesota is prioritizing health, and Rudy Gobert has been ruled out for rest.
  • Friday’s injury report also notes Julius Randle and Bones Hyland are out, Ayo Dosunmu is available, Naz Reid is questionable, and Joe Ingles is out for personal reasons; Edwards is ineligible for end-of-season awards under the NBA’s 65-game rule.
