Anthony Edwards Injury Update: Is Ant Playing Tonight vs. Bucks?
Edwards has been ruled out for Tuesday’s game against the Bucks due to right foot injury maintenance. It’s unclear if the Timberwolves star is slated to miss an extended period of time.
The guard missed three games in mid-December due to the foot. Edwards also dealt with a nagging hamstring injury earlier this season.
Ant Manserves as the Timberwolves’ primary rock-handler, spending 34.5% of his time on the court on ball, which ranks in the 99th percentile, according to databallr.
The former top pick averages a career-high 28.9 points to go along with 5.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game this season. Edwards is also knocking down a career-best 40.9% of his shots from beyond the arc.
With Edwards out of the lineup, G Donte DiVincenzo will likely assume the bulk of the primary ball-handling duties for Minnesota. In addition, the team has had G Mike Conley coming off the bench, and he also figures to pick up some of the slack.
Who Will Benefit With Anthony Edwards Out?
DiVincenzo serves as the Timberwolves’ starting point guard and will likely assume more of the primary ball-handling duties in Edwards’ absence. The former Villanova Wildcat is fifth on the team in scoring with 13.4 PPG, while also putting together averages of 4.5 RPG and 4.1 APG.
In his last 10 games without Edwards in the lineup, DiVincenzo averaged 19.5 PPG, 5.7 RPG, and 4.1 APG.
Seeing as the offense will likely run through DiVincenzo, there will be plenty of playmaking opportunities for the sharpshooting guard. It also doesn’t hurt that he’s able to create his own shot and is knocking down 37.7% of his attempts from three this season.
DiVincenzo has been quite a facilitator this season. According to databallr, the veteran guard averages 9.2 potential assists per 100 possessions, ranking him in the 73rd percentile.
