For Sunday’s game, the Timberwolves have announced that Edwards will be listed as questionable on the injury report.
Dane Moore of The Dane Moore NBA Podcast wrote: “Anthony Edwards is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against Charlotte.
Edwards missed Thursday’s game with an illness after previously returning from an absence due to knee inflammation. Then he came back and played on Friday, recovered enough from the illness to play. But now, for Sunday’s game, Edwards injury designation is again the knee inflammation.”
