Anthony Edwards, Bennedict Mathurin Questionable for Pacers-Timberwolves Matchup

Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards is listed as questionable for the upcoming game against the Indiana Pacers due to a right thumb laceration, raising concerns about his availability. Edwards has been a key player for the Timberwolves, averaging 27.5 points per game and has played in 69 of the 72 games this season. His potential absence could significantly impact the team's performance, as they've struggled without him, holding a 1-2 record in games he missed. If he cannot play, players like Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Jaylen Clark may take on larger roles, alongside younger players such as Terrence Shannon Jr. and Jaden McDaniels. Meanwhile, Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin is also listed as questionable with an ankle sprain, though Tyrese Haliburton has returned from injury for the matchup. The game is set to take place on March 24, 2025, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
