Impact Edwards went to the locker room in the opening seconds of the game after rolling his troublesome left ankle, but it's possible that he was simply re-taped and sent back out. For now, it appears that he's going to be fine.

Anthony Edwards' CLUTCH Performance In Indy! 🔥 | March 7, 2024

Returns to game Thursday Edwards (ankle) returned to Thursday's game against the Pacers with 8:11 remaining in the first quarter.
Tweaks ankle Thursday Edwards tweaked his left ankle during Thursday's game against the Pacers and went to the locker room, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.
Impact Edwards has been bothered by his left ankle for a while, and he rolled it again in the first 30 seconds of Thursday's contest. If he's unable to return, Minnesota will need Nickeil Alexander-Walker to play massive minutes Thursday.

Scores 13 in odd bench appearance Edwards finished Monday's 119-114 victory over Portland with 13 points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal in 35 minutes.
Impact Edwards not starting Monday was certainly an odd situation, as the star guard was "not there" by the time the game started, so Minnesota sent Nickeil Alexander-Walker in his place, though Edwards entered the hardwood as soon as the game began and still logged his regular workload. Barring another unexpected sequence such as Monday's, Edwards should be in the starting lineup when the Timberwolves take on the Pacers on Thursday.

Bruises elbow Monday Edwards is questionable to return to Monday's game against Portland due to a right elbow bruise.
Impact In what has been a saga of an evening for Edwards, the 23-year-old exited in the third quarter of Monday's contest after being scratched from the starting lineup due to being late getting on the court. It's unclear if an elbow complication had anything to do with his pregame delay, but his status for the remainder of Monday's game is in jeopardy regardless.

Late for work Monday Edwards was not present for lineup confirmations and will come off the bench Monday against Portland, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Impact Edwards often finishes his warm-up routine in the final moments of pregame near the team's locker room, and he did not take the court in time to be active in Minnesota starting lineup Monday -- with the Timberwolves receiving a delay of game infraction as well. Edwards is expected to sub in at the first stoppage of play.

Scores 27 points against Clippers Edwards had 27 points (9-20 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 89-88 loss to the Clippers.
Impact As has been the trend all season long, Edwards led Minnesota in scoring, but his elite figures were not enough to lift the Timberwolves to win over the Clippers in this low-scoring affair. Edwards continues to score the rock at an elite level, and he has scored 27 or more points in all but one of his last eight appearances, averaging 29.8 points per game in that span.

Impact Edwards continues to deal with left ankle soreness, but he was able to suit up Wednesday against the Grizzlies despite the issue.

Impact Edwards was impressive Wednesday and led the Timberwolves' second-half comeback with an impressive offensive performance, as he led all players in scoring while reaching the 30-point mark for the fourth time over his last six appearances. Edwards is firmly entrenched as the Timberwolves' primary offensive weapon, and the numbers back him up. Over Minnesota's last 10 games, the All-Star guard is averaging 31.9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game.
