Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards helped off with right ankle injury

CHICAGO -- Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards was helped off the court after suffering a right ankle injury during the first quarter of Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

Edwards landed awkwardly and collapsed to the floor after leaving his feet to deliver a pass to Mike Conley for a 3-pointer with 4:01 remaining in the first quarter. Edwards immediately began grabbing his right ankle after the play and didn't put any weight on the leg as a team trainer and injured teammate Karl Anthony Towns helped carry him toward the locker room.
