The Minnesota Timberwolves’ hellish season continued Friday night with a double-overtime loss to the Chicago Bulls that may have cost Anthony Edwards the rest of the regular season with an ankle injury. There is no official update for . Edwards walked back to the bench in the closing stages of the game, putting on his boots and he told reporters briefly that he would be fine.
Ant’s attitude and toughness are commendable. He’s appeared in 71 of his 71 games, but few other stars can play in his seven-game streak.there is There are only three weeks left on the NBA regular season calendar.
But don’t be afraid, Minnesota, backup It should arrive anytime. (Hey, Karl, that’s your cue.) Karl-Anthony Towns is on the verge of returning from a calf injury that has lasted months. The update from 2 days ago was that KAT is back. “Next few weeks” Whatever that means, it means he’ll be back on the floor soon.
good stuff
All things considered, the bottom in the West is terrible, so it’s still not that bad. Two of those organizations are in free fall, and Danny Ainge is doing everything in his power to keep his third team in the lottery.
Mike Conley and Rudy Gobert are more than capable of playing .500 basketball in a short span. Long enough to close the gap until Townes returns. Oh, and when that happens, the problem of Gobert and Townes sharing the floor magically disappears.

bad person
Minnesota without Edwards is the Utah Jazz in 2021, but with an older age and without Donovan Mitchell, the basketball situation is depressing. Front his office gave Gobert his pick in the 1 million draft.
D’Angelo Russell is the Lakers, KAT’s natural state is treating injuries, and the brightest spot of all collapsed on the court Friday night, “Time out!” I yelled. Like I was trying to stop a fight after being heavily belted by my brother.
The front office has already tried to realign the narrative, but that didn’t work.
Ugly
The only way the Wolves can avoid the offseason when pundits and fans wonder who’s unhappy is making fake KAT deals is by getting into the playoffs and winning rounds. It’s possible, but we need Edwards back in the playoffs and Towns getting ballistic ASAP.
Whenever you wonder which franchise is the gold standard for mismanagement, Minnesota offers a season like this. Wasn’t that the team that won the point guard?” And things continue to spiral from there.
Good luck to all T-Wolves fans.and just know this is not your responsibility.
I’m so sorry, Minnesota sports fans, but there aren’t enough good things to say about Kirk Cousins.read more timberwolves and vikings News from Deadspin’s team page.
