Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards exited early in the first quarter of the home opener with tightness in his right hamstring.
Anthony Edwards started fast on Sunday night, like he has this young season: five shot attempts and five points in the first three minutes of Minnesota’s game against Indiana. Then he left the game with what the team has described as “hamstring tightness” and will not return for the rest of the night.
The Pacers dropped to 0-3, a start far from what they expected. The Timberwolves pulled off a 114-110 win, surviving a rocky first quarter to secure the victory and improving their record to 2-1.
Julius Randle had 20 of his 31 points in the first half and Rudy Gobert added 14 points and 19 rebounds, helping the Minnesota Timberwolves hold on after an early exit by star Anthony Edwards to beat the depleted Indiana Pacers 114-110.
Timberwolves superstar Anthony Edwards has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Pacers due to right hamstring tightness, the team announced.
