Detroit Lakes, MN (KDLM) – The Minnesota Timberwolves begin their quest for a third consecutive Western Conference Finals appearance tonight when they take on the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center.
The Timberwolves are looking to build on back-to-back deep playoff runs that have established them as one of the Western Conference’s elite teams. However, they may have to start the new season without their cornerstone player.
Superstar guard Anthony Edwards is listed as questionable for tonight’s season opener due to back spasms, casting uncertainty over Minnesota’s lineup as they kick off the 2025-26 campaign. Edwards has been the driving force behind the Timberwolves’ recent success, and his potential absence would be a significant blow to the team’s opening night plans.
The Trail Blazers will look to spoil Minnesota’s season debut in front of their home crowd at Moda Center.
Tip-off is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT.
