MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo sustained leg
injuries in the first half of Game 4 of Minnesota's playoff series against
Denver on Saturday night, leaving the Timberwolves without both of their
starting guards.
Edwards' left knee appeared to buckle as he landed after contesting a layup
late in the second quarter. He was helped to the locker room and the
Timberwolves ruled him out for the rest of the game with a left knee injury.
DiVincenzo appeared to injure his lower right leg in the game's opening minutes
when he slipped to the court as he raced to chase a ball. He immediately waved
to the bench for help and put little to no weight on his right foot as he was
helped to the locker room. The Timberwolves said DiVincenzo would miss the
remainder of the game.
Edwards averaged a team-high 23.0 and 8.0 rebounds as the sixth-seeded
Timberwolves took a 2-1 lead over Denver. DiVincenzo averaged 14.3 points and
made 11 of 22 3-pointers in the first three games.
