Timberwolves reveal Jaden McDaniels suffered fractures to his 3rd & 4th metacarpals. Detroit’s Marvin Bagley suffered a similar injury earlier this season and missed 19 games (54 days). Bagley underwent surgery while McDaniels was placed in a cast. – 4:26 PM

Rudy Gobert sent home by the team for punching Kyle Anderson. Jaden McDaniels hurt his hand punching a wall. And this was during a game the Timberwolves *won*. AK – 8:18 PM

You had to figure Jaden McDaniels had broken his hand when he couldn’t return. He joins LeBron, Enes Kanter, Amare, and possibly Larry Bird on the list of self-inflicted hand injuries. – 6:34 PM

The Jazz and Lakers have turned into a really good game, so ESPN is somewhat vindicated by their broadcast choice
But between Rudy and Slo Mo and Jaden McDaniels and the enormity of the game, they gotta be regretting not showing minny and the pelicans – 5:13 PM

Halftime in Minnesota. Gobert has not played since Anderson incident.
Nearly as interestingly, Jaden McDaniels didn’t play at all in second quarter after 9 meh minutes in first. – 4:41 PM

Jon Krawczynski: Doesn’t change the result (broken hand), but the tunnel McDaniels went down is covered in a plastic curtain. I’m told he hit the curtain not knowing there was a concrete wall behind it. He apologized to his teammates and coaches & took responsibility for his mistake, sources said -via Twitter @JonKrawczynski / April 10, 2023
