Anthony Edwards suffers hip pointer injury vs Utah Jazz

The Minnesota Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards is likely out for the upcoming game against the Utah Jazz after being diagnosed with a hip-pointer injury. The 2020 first-overall pick fell hard and grimaced in pain as he needed medical attention.

There is no word on the severity of the injury but Timberwolves fans hold their breath that this won't lead to an extended absence.

According to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, a hip pointer injury is a bruise to the outside of the hip that is usually caused by hard falls. Recovery will take some time away from the sport and Edwards will likely miss the Timberwolves' next game against the OKC Thunder.

In his fourth year in the league, Edwards has only missed 13 games and the Timberwolves have managed to only lose four games without him.

The Minnesota Timberwolves currently own a 13-4 record and the team is at the top of the NBA Western Conference standings. In 17 games, Anthony Edwards averaged 26.2 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals per night.
