The news, which worries fans, was confirmed after medical examinations were performed.\n\nThe injury occurred during the fourth game of the Western Conference first-round series against the Denver Nuggets. Edwards had to leave the game before halftime, generating uncertainty in the team.\n\nThe player, who was already experiencing discomfort in his right knee, was injured when he incorrectly planted his leg after a play. Fortunately, tests ruled out major damage to the ligaments, which is a relief for the franchise.\n\nDespite Edwards&#8217; absence, the Timberwolves lead the series 3-1 against Denver. The fifth game is scheduled for this Monday. The hope of having Edwards back in the postseason will depend on the team&#8217;s progress in the playoffs.\n\nThe situation is complicated for Minnesota, as in the same game they also lost Donte DiVincenzo, who suffered a tear in his Achilles tendon.\n\nThe absence of Edwards, a key piece in the team&#8217;s offensive scheme and one of the league&#8217;s most outstanding players, represents a hard blow to the Timberwolves&#8217; aspirations in this postseason.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anthony Edwards, injured: Timberwolves on alert Minnesota Timberwolves star guard Anthony Edwards will be out for several weeks due to a bone contusion and hyperextension in his left knee.
