Procedure and Recovery Outlook
The Minnesota Timberwolves expect Anthony Edwards to be good as new once he completes arthroscopic surgery on his right knee. The procedure is set to address lingering pain that limited him to 61 games in the prior season. Team leadership noted the operation will provide a clearer timeline for his return, whether that spans weeks or months, with a focus on protecting his future health.
Recent Performance and New Findings
Edwards scored 47 points in an overtime loss at Cleveland, contributing to a franchise-record 133 points over four games. An MRI identified fresh damage not seen in earlier scans from before training camp or the playoffs. He had previously dealt with a left knee hyperextension and bone bruise during the postseason, yet still pushed to compete despite the latest issue.
Team Adjustments Without DiVincenzo
The Timberwolves are already missing Donte DiVincenzo, who tore his right Achilles tendon last postseason. The addition of LaMelo Ball has shifted Edwards back to shooting guard and added backcourt options.
