Minnesota Timberwolves Injury Report
Latest News from the NBA
Up 3-0 in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs, the Minnesota Timberwolves will look to beat the Phoenix Suns on Sunday to sweep the series.
The Timberwolves have been without Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) for the past three games, and his status for Sunday's game is still up in the air. D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is also listed as questionable, while Anthony Edwards (knee) is probable. For the Suns, Devin Booker (hamstring) is out, and Chris Paul (thumb) is questionable.
The Timberwolves have been playing well in Towns' absence, winning their last two games by an average of 15 points. Anthony Edwards has led the way for Minnesota, averaging 25 points per game in the playoffs. D'Angelo Russell has also been solid, averaging 20 points and 6 assists per game.
The Suns will need to find a way to slow down Edwards and Russell if they want to avoid being swept. Booker's absence is a big blow to Phoenix, as he is their leading scorer and one of the best players in the league. Paul is also a key player for the Suns, and his absence would be a major setback.
The Timberwolves are the favorites to win Sunday's game and advance to the second round of the playoffs. However, the Suns are a dangerous team, and they will be looking to extend the series to at least five games.
