The Timberwolves announced Tuesday Jaden McDaniels would miss at least two weeks because of a left ankle sprain.
On Wednesday, coach Chris Finch shared the detail that McDaniels in fact suffered a high ankle sprain when he rolled it going up for a rebound in Monday's game against the Spurs. A high ankle sprain is a more severe injury that can take longer to recover from than other ankle sprains. Still, Finch said the Wolves are hoping McDaniels will make significant improvement in the next two weeks.
"Big loss for us for sure," Finch said.
