Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Officially out
The Timberwolves have officially ruled Edwards (hip) out for Saturday's game in Charlotte, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
No surprise here, as Edwards was deemed doubtful heading into the day. In his absence, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Shake Milton and Troy Brown are all candidates to see increased workloads. Edwards' next opportunity to suit up will come Wednesday versus the Spurs.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Officially ruled out for Thursday
Edwards (hip) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Jazz, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Edwards was considered doubtful for Thursday's matchup, so it isn't very surprising to see him officially ruled out. Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Kyle Anderson, Troy Brown and Shake Milton are candidates to see increased run against Utah. However, coach Chris Finch hopes Edwards' injury isn't serious and is optimistic that the shooting guard will be available Saturday against the Hornets.

Edwards is listed as doubtful for Thursday's contest due to a right hip contusion he suffered against the Thunder. If he's ruled out, the 22-year-old guard will miss his first game of the season. More minutes and usage could be available for Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Kyle Anderson, Troy Brown and Shake Milton.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Unlikely to play against Utah

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Doesn't return Tuesday
Edwards didn't return to Tuesday's 106-103 win over the Thunder after exiting in the third quarter with a right hip contusion. He finished with 21 points (7-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 28 minutes.
Though Edwards was able to hit the 20-point mark for the sixth consecutive game, fantasy managers are likely more concerned about his availability moving forward after he landed hard on his hip during a dunk attempt. While the diagnosis of a bruised hip doesn't sound significant, Edwards could be subject to further testing as the Timberwolves look to ensure that the contusion is the extent of his injury. He can be viewed as day-to-day heading into Thursday's game against the Jazz.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Extends impressive scoring streak
Edwards finished Sunday's 119-97 victory over Memphis with 24 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one block over 34 minutes.
Edwards has scored at least 23 points in five consecutive appearances, and his role as Minnesota's go-to player on offense is pretty much set in stone -- a remarkable achievement since he shares the court with another dominant player on offense in Karl-Anthony Towns. Edwards has been consistently productive in other categories as well, and he's averaging 27.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game during the aforementioned scoring streak.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Good to go
Edwards (back) is available and will start Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Questionable for Sunday
Edwards is dealing with back spasms and is now questionable to play Sunday against Memphis, Dane Moore of 'The Dane Moore NBA Podcast' reports.
Edwards was a late addition to Sunday's injury report after last being seen dropping 35 points in 40 minutes during Friday's loss to Sacramento. Durability is in his favor, as Edwards hasn't missed a game this season and made 79 starts last year, but his status for Sunday is murky. Mike Conley would shoulder offensive initiation in Edwards' absence, while Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Shake Milton could be busy as well.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Pours in 35 against Kings
Edwards provided 35 points (8-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 17-18 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals across 40 minutes during Friday's 124-111 loss to Sacramento.
The fourth-year guard led the Timberwolves in scoring as he topped 30 points for the sixth time in 15 games, but he didn't get a lot of help -- Karl-Anthony Towns was the only other Minnesota player to supply more than 12 points. Edwards' game continues to grow, and the 2020 first overall pick is headed for career highs with 26.7 points, 6.0 boards and 5.1 assists per game, as well as in all three shooting percentages (46.1/37.5/86.7).

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Excellent two-way outing
Edwards had 31 points (11-22 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 112-99 win over Philadelphia.
The 76ers were without Joel Embiid, making things a lot easier for Edwards and the Timberwolves offensively. Edwards reached 30 points for the first time since Nov. 12, with the performance marking his fifth 30-point effort of the campaign. All things considered, Wednesday was one of Edwards' best all-around games of 2023-24. Fantasy managers who drafted him in the second round haven't had much to complain about.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Double-double against NYK
Edwards finished Monday's 117-100 win over the Knicks with 23 points (9-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals in 39 minutes.
Edwards didn't have his best shooting performances, but the star guard has proven already that he doesn't need to be overly efficient to deliver strong stat lines. This was his first double-double of the season, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect a massive increase in other categories outside of scoring. On that note, it's worth noting Edwards has scored at least 20 points in all but two of his 13 appearances this season.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Poor shooting display Wednesday
Edwards finished with 13 points (4-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 133-115 loss to the Suns.
Edwards failed to reach the 15-point plateau for the first time in 2023-24, and while he still filled the stat sheet, this was his worst outing of the campaign by a wide margin. Fantasy managers shouldn't be overly concerned, as this was probably nothing more than a bump on the road for one of the most productive guards through the first three weeks of the regular season. Edwards is averaging 26.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game across eight November contests.

Edwards accumulated 20 points (7-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists and three steals over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 104-101 victory over the Warriors.
Edwards provided a spark for the Timberwolves on both ends of the court in a road win, notching a team-high steals mark while finishing as one of two players with at least 20 points. Edwards tallied his second game with at least three steals while logging his eighth straight performance with at least 20 points.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Blows up for 33 points
Edwards registered 33 points (11-27 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 10-10 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 38 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 win over the Warriors.
Edwards was on the injury report earlier in the day, but he suited up and put together an excellent performance against the Warriors. Edwards is the offensive sparkplug for the Timberwolves, backed by superlative big men and an impressive supporting cast. He's averaging 28.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.3 steals through nine games.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Available Sunday
Edwards (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Edwards was initially probable for Sunday's matchup but was downgraded to questionable. However, he'll still be able to suit up against Golden State despite his illness. He's averaging 27.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 35.6 minutes per game to begin the season.

Edwards (illness) is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Edwards was added to the injury report Saturday as probable after it was reported he was battling an illness, but it doesn't appear as though he's trending in the right direction.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Impressive against Spurs
Edwards finished with 28 points (9-21 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 8-11 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Friday's 117-110 victory over the Spurs.
Edwards has failed to reach the 20-point plateau just once this season and remains one of the best scoring guards in the league regardless of who's defending him. He's more than just a scorer, however, and he provides decent numbers in other categories to strengthen his upside considerably. Through eight games, Edwards is averaging 27.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.3 steals per contest.
