Anthony Edwards Heads Into 2026-27 Healthy Off a Career-Best Season
newsroom · 2 h agoAnthony Edwards is not on the injury report as the Timberwolves get set for the 2026-27 season. He comes off a 2025-26 campaign in which he averaged a career-high 28.8 points a game. The opener is still ahead, so all the numbers below are from last season.
Where Edwards Stands Now
Anthony Edwards is entering his seventh season, still just 25 years old, and he is not on the injury report. He wears No. 5 for Minnesota, plays guard, and stands 6-4, 225 pounds out of Georgia. With no games played yet in 2026-27, there is no new stat line to point to. Everything on record right now comes from last season, 2025-26, which is the most recent measuring stick for where he is as a player heading into training camp. The Timberwolves list him as a full participant, with no restrictions and no history of injury noted in his file.
Last Season by the Numbers
In 2025-26, Edwards played 61 games for Minnesota and averaged 35.0 minutes, 28.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.8 blocks and 2.9 turnovers a night. He shot 48.9 percent from the field, 39.9 percent from three and 79.6 percent from the line, with a true shooting mark of 61.7 percent. His usage rate sat at 30.9 percent, meaning he was on the floor for nearly a third of Minnesota's possessions when he played. His plus-minus for the season was plus-2.7. All of those numbers describe last season, not any game yet played in 2026-27.
Efficiency and Shot Profile
The efficiency numbers from 2025-26 stand out as much as the scoring. A 48.9 percent mark from the field paired with 39.9 percent from three is a strong combination for a high-usage guard, and the 79.6 percent free-throw rate backs it up. Put together, that produced a 61.7 true shooting percentage, a clean measure of scoring efficiency that accounts for free throws and the extra value of threes. With a usage rate of 30.9 percent, Edwards was doing that scoring while also being the offense's first option on a huge share of possessions. Those are the numbers Minnesota will look to build on once the 2026-27 schedule opens.
Injury Report
As of now, Anthony Edwards is not on the injury report. There is no injury history on file for him. That is a clean bill of health heading into a new season, with no restrictions tied to his workload or recovery. For a guard who logged 35.0 minutes a game last season, staying off the injury list matters, since his minutes load was already among the heaviest on the roster. No further injury notes are available at this time.
What's Ahead
The 2026-27 season has not started, so Edwards has no current-season stats yet. He heads into it off a 2025-26 season in which he played 61 games and posted career-caliber scoring and efficiency numbers for Minnesota. With him listed as healthy and no injury history on record, the Timberwolves will be looking for him to carry a similar workload once games begin. The opener is coming, and it will be the first chance to see whether his early-season form picks up where last season's numbers left off.
