How Anthony Edwards' knee scare exposed Timberwolves' flaws
Anthony Edwards hyperextended his left knee and suffered a bone bruise in Game 4 against the Nuggets. The injury occurred when his knee buckled awkwardly while contesting a shot. He texted his closest friend three words: "It is over, bruh," convinced the injury was catastrophic. Edwards played through significant swelling in his toe and knee during the second-round exit, averaging 21.6 points on 42.8 percent shooting across 10 playoff games after posting 28.8 points per game in the regular season.
