MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards injured his hamstring early in the first quarter in Sunday's home opener win over the Indiana Pacers. He did not return after exiting the court 3:07 into the game.
The injury apparently occurred after Edwards converted a tough layup in traffic off a fast break, taking hard contact before he looked for a foul call to no avail. The Pacers called timeout one second later, and Bones Hyland subbed in for Edwards during the break.
Edwards was listed as questionable to play in Minnesota's season opener at Portland on Wednesday night, when he had 41 points in 39 minutes. The three-time All-Star has played in 426 of a possible 445 games, including the playoffs, in his career.
