Anthony Edwards has bene listed as questionable by the Minnesota Timberwolves for Game 1 of their first round playoff series agains the Denver Nuggets due to right knee injury maintenance. Edwards is expected to play in Saturday's game and was a full go when the Wolves scrimmaged this week. Edwards missed 11 of the final 14 games of the regular season due to the knee condition.
Edwards fell short of the NBA's 65-game minimum for regular season awards. Edwards most recently played last Friday and looked healthy. Minnesota last met the Nuggets during the 2024 playoffs when they were victorious in Game 7 of their second round series. The Nuggets rested most of their rotation in their final regular season game against the San Antonio Spurs as they signaled an apparent preference to avoid the Wolves to instead play the Houston Rockets in the first round. But the Nuggets upset the Spurs in the game to setup a matchup against Edwards and the Wolves.
