Anthony Edwards is doubtful to suit up for the Minnesota Timberwolves in their game against the Denver Nuggets on Monday. The Wolves will play on the back end of a back-to-back after recording a 114-110 victory against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. Edwards started against the Pacers but exited the game after just three minutes.
The three-time All-Star complained of right hamstring tightness and went back to back to the locker room. The Timberwolves later announced that Edwards won't take any further part in the contest.
The athletic guard emerged from the locker room and took a seat on Minnesota's bench, albeit in street clothes. In three minutes of action, the 6-foot-4 superstar scored five quick points on five shots and also recorded one rebound.
