Despite sore knee, Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards remains in starting lineup

SACRAMENTO, CALIF. – The Timberwolves were scoring at will in Tuesday's 134-114 victory over Sacramento, except there was one player who wasn't joining in on the fun at the basket — guard Anthony Edwards.

Edwards shot only 2-for-12 for five points in one of his worst statistical games of the season. Only last week, Edwards also scored only five points in a 130-115 win over Denver. After that game, Edwards yelled as he was going down a Target Center hallway, "My knees needed it, baby."

Edwards referenced having a sore knee in recent weeks and even left a home game against Brooklyn on January 23 after knocking knees with an opposing player.
