Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards is expected to miss multiple weeks after being diagnosed with a bone bruise and hyperextension in his left knee.
The diagnosis indicates Edwards avoided a ligament tear, a significant development for Minnesota as it assesses the absence of its leading perimeter scorer and primary offensive option.
Edwards’ injury leaves the Timberwolves without one of the league’s most explosive guards for an extended stretch. His scoring, shot creation and defensive presence have been central to Minnesota’s lineup, making his recovery timeline a key factor for the team in the coming weeks.
