Short-Handed Timberwolves Make Quick Work of Bucks
Minnesota won 139-106 with season-high 22 three-pointers despite missing top scorer Edwards and leading rebounder Gobert due to injury and suspension, respectively.
- The Timberwolves announced Monday that Anthony Edwards will not play Tuesday night in Milwaukee due to right-foot maintenance linked to a lingering toe infection.
- Given his recent workload, Edwards had been listed questionable multiple times over the past two weeks, yet played in all three games during the January 3-6 stretch, according to team reports.
- Julius Randle led the way with 29 points as the Minnesota Timberwolves shot a season-best 59.8% overall and made a season-high 22 3-pointers in their 139-106 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
- The Wolves will be without Edwards, Gobert and Terrence Shannon Jr., leaving rotation gaps against Milwaukee; assuming no setback, Edwards could return Friday at Houston and possibly Saturday at San Antonio.
- Against a Bucks frontcourt featuring Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner, Minnesota's absences could shape future matchups after sweeping the season series to even at 36 wins apiece.
