As we reported last night, all signs point to him returning tomorrow night <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/gbn3AQHVtz\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/t.co\/gbn3AQHVtz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jon Krawczynski (@JonKrawczynski) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JonKrawczynski\/status\/2038370499898572940?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">March 29, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7k\">This is great news for the Timberwolves, who currently hold the No. 5 seed in the Western Conference. Minnesota is two games back of the Denver Nuggets for the No. 4 seed, but it has a much better chance of making a late-season run with Edwards in action. The Wolves have hung on without Edwards in the 2025-26 season, going 10-6, including a 4-2 stretch without him this March.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7n\">With Edwards expected to return on Monday, the Wolves are favored by 7.5 points on the road in the latest odds at <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/4kJjtBu\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7q\">This season, the former No. 1 overall pick is averaging 29.5 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game while shooting 49.2 percent from the field and 40.2 percent from 3. Edwards can only miss one more game the rest of the regular season and remain eligible for end-of-season awards. He&#8217;s played in 58 games so far and needs seven more appearances to reach the NBA&#8217;s 65-game requirement for All-NBA, MVP and more. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7t\">Oddsmakers are expecting Edwards to return to his normal role in this matchup, as his points prop is set at 28.5 and his rebounds prop is set at 4.5. Dallas has been one of the worst teams in the NBA since the All-Star break, so this is a very winnable matchup for Minnesota if Edwards does play. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7y\">Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"81\">If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"84\">Claim the latest\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/sportsbook-promos\/draftkings-promo-code\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DraftKings promo code<\/a>\u00a0offer today.
