Minnesota guard Anthony Edwards left the Timberwolves’ Thursday playoff game against the Golden State Warriors in Minneapolis after sustaining a sprained left ankle on a drive to the rim.

Edwards stayed on the court for a while after sustaining the injury, which happened midway through the second quarter when Warriors forward Trayce Jackson-Davis inadvertently stepped on his left ankle. The Timberwolves called a timeout and eventually Edwards limped slowly toward the locker room.

A short time later, Minnesota deemed Edwards’ return as questionable.

Edwards had seven points in 15 minutes when he left injured. He led the Timberwolves in scoring with 27.6 points per game during the regular season.

Minnesota held a 56-39 halftime lead as it looked to even the best-of-seven Western Conference semifinal series at one win apiece.

Travis Hunter’s fantasy football dual eligibility is a cheat code

There hasn’t been a non-quarterback who has entered the NFL with more hype than Travis Hunter in a long time. The reigning Heisman Trophy winner comes to the Jacksonville Jaguars as the second overall pick with a boatload of talent, a shelf full of individual accolades and the intent to continue playing on both offense and defense.AdvertisementThat last part has also made Hunter the most hyped rookie in fantasy football in recent memory — especially in IDP leagues. With Hunter’s role in Jacksonville still somewhat uncertain, many fantasy football game providers have decided to make him eligible as both a cornerback and a wide receiver. That creates the possibility for much more than just a “loophole” fantasy asset — it creates the potential for a player who could wreak havoc in IDP leagues in 2025.No two ways about itLast year […]

Por que eleição do Papa Leão XIV é ‘sinal divino’ de título da NBA para os fãs dos Knicks, como Spike Lee

À frente nas semifinais da Conferência Leste, com placar parcial de 2 a 0 sobre o Boston Celtics, o New York Knicks parece, enfim, "abençoado" na disputa pelo título da NBA. Pelo menos é nisso que acreditam vários fãs do time de basquete, como o cineasta Spike Lee. Para eles, aliás, a eleição do cardeal Robert Francis Prevost como sucessor do Papa Francisco, primeiro chefe católico nascido nos Estados Unidos que escolheu o nome papal Leão XIV, seria mais um "sinal divino" disso.

Twins’ starting pitching a rare bright spot, and reason to believe turnaround is doable

MINNEAPOLIS — Many of my preseason predictions for the Minnesota Twins look woefully off base amid the team’s disappointing 18-20 start, but one crucial big-picture prediction has been right on the money so far:Much like in 2023, the Twins’ starting pitching will carry them this season.Led by a strong front three of Pablo López, Joe Ryan and Bailey Ober, with Triple-A reinforcements Zebby Matthews, David Festa and Andrew Morris waiting in the wings as high-upside in-season depth, the Twins’ rotation will have a top-five ERA in the American League after ranking 11th last year.AdvertisementIf anything, I may have underestimated the rotation.Through roughly the first quarter of the season, the Twins’ starting pitchers are sixth in MLB — and fourth in the AL — with a combined 3.42 ERA. And that’s after an awful first turn through the rotation in which […]

Raptors Tankathon, pre-NBA Draft Lottery 2025 edition: Four mock scenarios

It is a sad state of affairs, but it is more true than not: The 82 games the Toronto Raptors played between late-October and early-April were a prelude to Monday’s NBA Draft Lottery.With expectations low and winning largely incidental, those games were mostly about evaluating the Raptors’ young players. Barring a massive surprise season, it was clear before the year that the Raptors needed an infusion of top-end talent to reach a higher standing in the Eastern Conference.AdvertisementThe trade for Brandon Ingram could help on that front, but getting lucky on Monday — the Raptors have a 7.5-percent chance of winning the lottery and a 31.9 percent chance of moving up to the top four — would go a long way in improving their long-term outlook.A reminder: The Raptors finished with the seventh-worst record in the NBA. That means they […]
