What happened: Minnesota Timberwolves president of basketball operations Tim Connelly said Wednesday that the team's only concern is Edwards' long-term health, noting the operation is not a meniscus issue. Edwards is officially listed out under right knee injury management.

Why it matters: Moving forward with the arthroscopic procedure sidelines Minnesota's star guard and forces the coaching staff to adjust the backcourt rotation.

What to watch: The Timberwolves are scheduled to host the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 8:00 PM ET.
