Edwards, the Timberwolves’ 23-year-old leader and already one of the league’s top players, had to be helped off the floor midway through the second quarter after Trayce Jackson-Davis landed on his left ankle defending an attempt at the rim.

In Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals, Minnesota had full control over Golden State, having a lead as large as 25 points. The Timberwolves didn't come away without an injury scare, however, as star shooting guard Anthony Edwards went down in the second quarter with an ankle injury.

This series nearly became the Warriors without Stephen Curry against the Timberwolves without Anthony Edwards.
