Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves took the floor for the third outing of their seven-game homestand on Tuesday night, as they took on the San Antonio Spurs and 2023 No. 1 overall Victor Wembanyama, who battled his mentor and fellow Frenchman Rudy Gobert.
Minnesota played this one without Karl-Anthony Towns, who missed the game due to personal reasons after one of his longtime friends passed away suddenly this week. Timberwolves Head Coach Chris Finch said pregame the team is hoping Towns is available for Wednesday night’s contest against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Finch elected to start Kyle Anderson, just as he did when Gobert missed Saturday’s matchup with the Brooklyn Nets.
