Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves remains optimistic about making a return during the second-round matchup against the San Antonio Spurs after missing Game 7 due to a hyperextended knee that has him listed week-to-week.
According to Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic, Edwards has been consistently rehabbing and has told teammates he expects to be back at some point in the series.
Meanwhile, the Timberwolves are also dealing with another injury concern involving Ayo Dosunmu, who was hurt during the closeout win over the Denver Nuggets.
His timeline for return remains uncertain.
“Ayo is more day to day,” head coach Chris Finch said, per Andrew Dukowitz. “He went through things but just the light stuff.”
Dosunmu previously delivered a standout performance in Game 4, scoring 43 points to lead Minnesota to a win without Edwards.
