There was a moment of unease in the Minnesota community during Monday night’s Minnesota Timberwolves game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. The main player for the Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards, was brought to the locker room in the third quarter when it looked that he had injured his elbow during an attempt to get to the basket. Shortly after, he was determined to have a contusion in his right elbow and was considered doubtful to return. But it doesn’t appear that the 22-year-old would give up playing if he was harmed. Much to everyone’s amazement, Edwards took the court again in the concluding period.
Some were concerned by this, even while it may be considered as a positive example of Edwards’ willingness to persevere and embrace his inner Mamba. In response to the revelation, a number of admirers expressed concern over the upcoming star’s health on social media.
To prevent the elbow from becoming worse, others are urging Edwards to take some time off. The two-time All-Star is undoubtedly the team’s focal point, so as the postseason draws closer, the Timberwolves’ ability to maintain his health is vital.
Anthony Edwards is putting up 26.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game this season on average. The squad is leading the Western Conference in large part due to his play. Right now, Oklahoma City Thunder and Timberwolves are vying for the first seed in a close match.
After beginning the working day along with an overtime defeat to the Miami Heat, the Portland Trail Blazers ended a nine-game winless streak with two victories over the Memphis Grizzlies. This week’s record was good. Portland finished the week 2-1 overall.
A lot of Blazers helped the team win during the course of the week. But the most recently arrived Blazer on the team had a huge influence, thus Dalano Banton is this week’s Blazer Player of Week in a row
Portland’s two victories this week were greatly aided by Banton. Banton averaged 14.5 points and 5.0 rebounds per game against the Grizzlies after having a relatively quiet opening to the week against the Heat, going scoreless. He set a season high with 19 points in the opening game in Memphis.
Banton has established himself as a key reserve player for the Blazers since being acquired at the trade deadline. In five of his eight games thus far, he has recorded double-digit performances. He has played a big role in the majority of games and has had an influence running the second unit.
Portland’s victory in its subsequent game over the Grizzlies was greatly aided by his contribution. Banton scored eight of the Blazers’ 12 points in overtime to help seal the victory after playing only nine minutes and scoring two points in the regular season. He may have played the best he has ever played in a Portland uniform during the little overtime period.
Additionally, there has to be a crowded honorable mentions category because this week also included a lot of other noteworthy performances. I’ll start with Jabari Walker.
