Jaden McDaniels’ iron man streak came to an end Wednesday. The 25 year old missed Minnesota’s home bout with Washington with a left wrist injury.
That was the first game the wing sat out since Dec. 8, 2023 — nearly two calendar years. The absence snapped a streak of 157-straight regular season games played, the fifth-longest active mark in the NBA.
McDaniels had also played 31 playoff games in that span, pushing his personal total to 188.
