ANTHONY EDWARDS NEWS

Questionable Friday with illness Edwards is considered a question mark for Friday's game versus the Bucks due to illness.

Impact Edwards has begun his season with career-best marks, and his absence for an illness would just be a small bump in the road, though also a major void for fantasy purposes. The team will let him get a night's rest before deciding on his status for the border battle.

Logs 24 points in loss Edwards had 24 points (8-21 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 loss to the Suns.

Impact Edwards was once again a key part of Minnesota's offense. Although Minnesota is stacked with talent, they need solid contributions from every starter, and when D'Angelo Russell, Jalen McDaniels and Rudy Gobert all underperform as they did Tuesday night, Edwards had to shoulder a heavy load to keep the offense going.

Impact Edwards started to put the game out of reach with a 16-point third quarter, providing an extra gear for the Minnesota offense to extend the Lakers' winless streak. Although Edwards has had sone shooting struggles this season, he is essentially matchup-proof and will always contribute in secondary categories to bolster his fantasy totals.

Enjoys huge scoring night Edwards finished Wednesday's 134-122 victory over the Spurs with 34 points (12-21 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 38 minutes.

Impact Edwards bounced back in a big way Wednesday night, as he drilled a season-high seven triples while falling just one assist shy of a double-double. He's registered 30 or more points in three of his last four contests and should be a candidate for plenty of similar performances given his talent and the number of opportunities he's sure to receive as the season unfolds.

Woeful shooting performance Edwards finished with nine points (3-15 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists across 35 minutes during Monday's 115-106 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Edwards started the season slow with an 11-point game in the opener, and while many believed that was just an outlier considering he posted back-to-back 30-point outings in the subsequent two contests, the lack of efficiency and consistency is beginning to look worrisome even if it's been just four games. He's been either very good or very bad, and he will try to bounce back during the Timberwolves' rematch against the Spurs on Wednesday.

Erupts for 30 points Edwards provided 30 points (13-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 116-106 win over Oklahoma City.

Impact Edwards finished with 30 points for the second straight game, and he was also able to notch his first double-double of the young season by crashing the glass. It's clear the Timberwolves will lean heavily on their young star throughout the 2022-23 campaign, as he's logged 32 or more minutes in each of his team's first three contests.

Racks up 30 points in loss Edwards supplied 30 points (12-23 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block across 41 minutes during Friday's 132-126 overtime loss to Utah.

Impact Edwards scored his game-high 30 points efficiently, as he hit 12 of 23 field-goal attempts. That was a marked improvement over his output in the season opener, when he scored just 11 points on 4-of-17 shooting from the field. Edwards' fantasy strengths are his scoring and three-point production, so performances like Friday's should be a relatively frequent occurrence this season.

Scores 11 in Opening Night win Edwards totaled 11 points (4-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-4 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-108 win over the Thunder.

Impact Both Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns (12 points in 36 minutes) were uncharacteristically quiet Wednesday, as Rudy Gobert (23 points, 16 boards) and D'Angelo Russell (20 points) -- along with Jaden McDaniels (19 points) -- did much of the heavy lifting offensively. Don't expect Edwards to struggle from the field to this degree very often -- the third-year guard is the odds-on favorite to win the Most Improved Player award for a reason.

Impact Edwards has been everything he was billed to be coming out of the 2020 NBA Draft, compiling 21.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.5 steals over 34.3 minutes per game last season. He will serve in a starring role in the backcourt again, but there will also be another mouth to feed down low following the team's offseason acquisition of All-Star Rudy Gobert.

Impact Edwards found it difficult to get his shots to fall but was able to contribute as both a rebounder and passer. The third-year guard improved his field-goal conversion rate to 44.1 percent during his sophomore campaign and is shooting 42.6 percent in the preseason despite Wednesday's rough outing. He's averaging 14.0 points, 4.5 boards, 3.2 dimes, 1.0 three-pointers and 1.2 steals across four exhibition games.
