Jaden McDaniels’s 15 buckets over the weekend after Anthony Edwards got hurt.
First chance to see McDaniels do that little bit more in his game that you don’t get to see normally because it’s not his role. pic.twitter.com/S4aw2ZZRRz – 2:28 PM

With a twist of an ankle, the Timberwolves season was thrown into jeopardy. How long Anthony Edwards is out remains to be seen. But the fight to save their season starts right now. theathletic.com/4321907/2023/0… – 2:15 AM

Mike Conley on what he will need to do on O if Anthony Edwards is to miss time:
“It’s just going to have to be more aggressive, more assertive, and just get the ball in my hands a lot more… I won’t always make eight threes, but continue to shoot, make plays and be aggressive.” – 12:19 AM

Rudy Gobert on what Mike Conley provided once Anthony Edwards went down (eight made 3s) and what they’ll need from Conley if Ant is to miss time:
“I love it, I want him to have that mindset if guys go under, punish them right away. Can’t go under on you. Too good of a shooter.” pic.twitter.com/pfZJeTPSYH – 12:15 AM

Anthony Edwards said briefly after the game that he was going to be fine. But the question is how long he may be out even if the injury isn’t severe. Hard to tell as of now. – 11:24 PM
