Game Preview

The Minnesota Timberwolves considered holding out star guard Anthony Edwards for the opener of a two-game set with the Portland Trail Blazers.

Edwards’ right knee was aching after a physical battle with the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night, and there was plenty of thought given to having him sit out Tuesday. And Edwards was on board with the plan.

But shortly before game time, Edwards had a change of heart and took the court, and he punished the host Trail Blazers to the tune of 41 points during Minnesota’s 121-109 victory. Edwards will look for another strong outing on Thursday night when the teams play again in Portland.
