Anthony Edwards - Expected to suit up SaturdayThe Timberwolves list Edwards as probable for Saturday's game against the Heat with left patella tendinopathy.
ImpactThe same injury recently kept Edwards sidelined for four consecutive contests, but he's started in both of the Timberwolves' last two games, including Friday's 118-110 loss to the Magic. Edwards played 34 minutes in that contest and submitted one of his best performances in weeks (25 points, five assists, three rebounds, one steal), and with the Timberwolves providing no reports indicating that he suffered a setback in that contest, his appearance on the injury report is likely just a matter of extra caution ahead of the second half of the back-to-back set. Edwards should suit up Saturday, though the Timberwolves could look to not overextend him.
