Timberwolves superstar guard Anthony Edwards is going to miss more than just Tuesday night's game against the Suns.
Edwards had an MRI done that revealed inflammation in his right knee, [the team announced](https://www.nba.com/timberwolves/news/anthony-edwards-injury-update-3) on Tuesday. He'll be re-evaluated in one to two weeks.
By that timeline, the minimum number of games Edwards will miss is four. The earliest potential return would be next Wednesday in a critical ESPN game against the Rockets. But that might be pushing it. If Edwards is out for the final two weeks of March, he'd miss Minnesota's next seven games, potentially returning on Thursday, April 2 in Detroit.
Edwards, 24, is third in the NBA in scoring this season. In 58 games, he's averaged 29.5 points on 49/40/80 shooting splits. He was named an All-Star for the fourth time. He still has to play in seven more games this season to be eligible for an All-NBA team or other postseason awards.
This is a developing story.
