The Timberwolves just need to win one more game to advance to the NBA conference semifinals as Minnesota leads the Nuggets 3–1 in their first-round series. However, if the Timberwolves do advance, they’ll be playing without their star Anthony Edwards for a few weeks.
ESPN’s Shams Charania reported on Sunday that Edwards suffered a bone bruise and hyperextension in his left knee on Saturday night and will miss multiple weeks. The good news is that Edwards avoided sustaining any ligament damage.
