Eligibility
Availability
Anthony Edwards has been given the green light to play in Saturday's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets, shaking off a shoulder injury sustained during Thursday's game against the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Edwards was able to play through the issue on Thursday and will not miss any time. With the star guard available, the Timberwolves may look to rest veteran Mike Conley, who is a candidate to get the night off in the backcourt.
Anthony Edwards (shoulder) is questionable for the Wolves' game against the Nets on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Edwards suffered a shoulder injury in an epic game against the Nuggets on Christmas Day. If he doesn't go, Bones Hyland should get a sizeable bump in usage.
Anthony Edwards led the Timberwolves offense Thursday night, exploding for 44 points (14-25 FG, 5-14 3PT, 11-13 FT) while also dishing out three assists, grabbing six rebounds, and recording three steals in a 142-138 loss to the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Edwards continues a dynamic stretch on both ends of the floor, dishing out two or more assists, grabbing two or more rebounds, and scoring 24 or more points in each of his last four games. The guard continues to reward fantasy managers with an explosive option in lineups while leading an athletic Minnesota starting five for head coach Chris Finch, averaging 29.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game while carrying a usage rate of 30.6% so far this season.
Anthony Edwards scored 38 points (15-27 FG, 4-10 3PT, 4-6 FT) to go along with two rebounds, two assists, four steals and one block in the Timberwolves 115-104 win over the Knicks.
Fantasy Impact
Edwards took advantage of a short-handed Knicks rotation. He remains one of the top overall producers for fantasy managers this season.
Anthony Edwards scored 24 points (7-24 FG, 2-11 3PT, 8-12 FT) with four rebounds, six assists and one block in Sunday's 103-100 win against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Fantasy Impact
While Edwards scored 24 points, it took him 24 field goal attempts, as he shot just 29.2% from the floor. He did, however, contribute a solid fantasy performance with four rebounds and six assists. He will look to improve his shooting in Tuesday’s matchup against the New York Knicks.
