The Timberwolves received good news about Anthony Edwards’s timeline to return after he sprained his ankle during Minnesota’s 139–131 double-overtime loss to the Bulls on Friday.
According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania on Sunday, Edwards was seen still wearing a walking boot and his swelling has gone down. From here, the Timberwolves plan to evaluate the 21-year-old day-to-day before determining his official return to the court.
Initially, the team and coach Chris Finch weren’t sure how long Edwards would be out, but it was expected to be a while if the injury got worse.
