Deadspin | NBA roundup: Spurs hold off Anthony Edwards (55 points), Timberwolves Deadspin | NBA roundup: Spurs hold off Anthony Edwards (55 points), Timberwolves

32 MINS AGO • DEADSPIN.COM

Jaden McDaniels - Strong offensive showing McDaniels had 23 points (7-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 41 minutes during Saturday's 126-123 loss to the Spurs.

Impact McDaniels scored double digits for the eighth straight game, dropping at least 20 points for the 10th time this season. Coming off a breakout campaign during the 2024-25 season, McDaniels has been able to maintain that momentum, averaging 15.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.4 three-pointers and 2.1 combined steals and blocks through his first 41 appearances.

Leonard Miller - Muted role continues Miller amassed one rebound and one assist across six minutes during Saturday's 126-123 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Miller played a limited role off the bench, a trend that has become all too common when it comes to his opportunities in the NBA. In 17 appearances this season, Miller has logged double-digit minutes only once, averaging 2.6 points in 5.1 minutes per game.

Joan Beringer - Another strong performance Beringer closed Saturday's 126-123 loss to the Spurs with 10 points (5-6 FG), eight rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 23 minutes.

Impact Beringer flirted with his first career double-double, while also matching his career-high with two blocks. After it was announced that Rudy Gobert would miss the game due to a hip injury, Naz Reid lasted just five minutes before leaving the game with a shoulder concern. If both are forced to miss additional time, Beringer could be an intriguing short-term pickup, even in standard leagues.

Anthony Edwards - Drops career-high 55 points in loss Edwards finished Saturday's 126-123 loss to the Spurs with 55 points (19-33 FG, 9-16 3Pt, 8-10 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 40 minutes.

Impact Edwards returned to the hardwood following a two-game absence due to right foot injury maintenance, and he turned in an impressive performance on the offensive end. The Timberwolves were down 25 points at halftime, but the superstar guard scored 39 of his career-high 55 points in the second half, including 26 in the final frame, to give Minnesota a shot. While his team didn't come away with a win, Edwards reached the 50-point threshold for the first time this season and for the third time in his career. He also knocked down a season-best nine triples. The 24-year-old has scored at least 23 points in all seven of his appearances this month, averaging 31.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.1 assists per contest during that span.

Naz Reid - Won't return Saturday Reid (shoulder) will not return to Saturday's game versus the Spurs.

Impact Reid will end his evening with zero points (0-1 FG) and one steal over five minutes. Joan Beringer started the second half of Saturday's game, so he stands to benefit if Reid needs to miss time with the shoulder injury.

13 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Naz Reid - Questionable to return Reid is questionable to return to Saturday's game against San Antonio due to left shoulder soreness.

Impact Reid appears to have dodged a significant injury, but his return Saturday is currently up in the air. He missed his only shot attempt in the first quarter before heading to the locker room with the shoulder issue.

13 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Naz Reid - Exits with injury Reid went to the locker room during the first quarter of Saturday's game against the Spurs with an undisclosed injury, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.

Impact Reid checked out at the 6:58 mark and immediately went to the locker room. The nature of his injury is unclear at this time, and he can be considered questionable to return until further notice. Rudy Gobert (hip) is out, so it would be up to Joan Beringer to step up if Reid is done for the night.

Mike Conley - Headed to bench Conley will come off the bench Saturday versus the Spurs.

Impact Anthony Edwards is back from his rest day, so Conley will head back to the second unit. As a reserve this season, Conley owns averages of 4.0 points and 2.5 assists in 16.4 minutes per game.

Naz Reid - Running with starters Reid is starting Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Reid will step into the starting lineup after Rudy Gobert was ruled out due to a bruised hip. This will mark Reid's second start of the season, with his first taking place Tuesday against the Bucks (19 points in 28 minutes).

14 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Rudy Gobert - Won't go Saturday Gobert (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Gobert was added to the injury report earlier in the day due to a bruised left hip, and he's since been downgraded to out. This should open up more minutes for Naz Reid and Joan Beringer in the frontcourt.

Anthony Edwards - Set to return Saturday Edwards (foot) will play Saturday against the Spurs.

Rudy Gobert - Questionable due to hip injury Gobert is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Spurs due to a left hip contusion.

Impact Gobert may have picked up the injury during the Timberwolves' 110-105 loss to the Rockets on Friday, when he played 32 minutes and finished with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-10 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals. Naz Reid would likely enter the Timberwolves' starting lineup if Gobert is unable to play.
