What happened: Anthony Edwards will undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his ailing right knee, per Shams Charania. The NBA on NBC Showtime crew convened Tuesday to address the medical update.

Why it matters: The surgery sidelines the same Anthony Edwards who debuted his 'With Love' sneaker colorway on Oct. 25 during the opening week of the 2026-27 NBA regular season. Missing up to eight weeks takes him off the floor until late December.

What to watch: Post-procedure medical updates will establish a firmer return target for the December schedule.
