Minnesota Timberwolves star guard Anthony Edwards has been struggling with a 'runner's knee' injury for over a month. As the Timberwolves prepare for Game 2 against the Denver Nuggets in their first-round NBA playoff series, Edwards is officially listed as questionable. His injury has hindered his performance, evident in his 7-of-19 shooting in Game 1, where he lacked his usual explosiveness.
