Here’s the latest on Anthony Edwards’ injury status:

• Edwards suffered a bone bruise with a knee hyperextension in his left knee during Game 4 against the Nuggets and is expected to miss multiple weeks, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania and multiple league reports. This suggests a longer-than-short-term absence but with no major ligament damage reported at the time. [cite ][cite ]
• The injury occurred in the first half of that game, and initial timelines indicated he would be out for the remainder of that series and potentially longer, depending on his rehab progress and swelling management. [cite ][cite ]
• As of late April 2026, the Timberwolves were steering toward a return timeline that prioritized rest and swelling reduction, with game six or later in the series among the possibilities for his return, should the team advance. [cite ]
