Timberwolves insider Jon Krawczynski reported last week that Edwards' foot injury is linked to a toe infection. He missed three straight games in December, and two in January, but he'll now be back in the lineup on Saturday in San Antonio.

"He dealt with a toe infection a while back," Krawczynski wrote in a response to a fan question on social media."It's just kind of lingered a little bit. Nothing serious, but makes it sore sometimes."

Edwards is averaging 28.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game this season on 50.0% shooting from the field and 40.9% from three-point range.

Rudy Gobert is also listed as quesitonable for the game with a left hip contusion, according to the team.

Minnesota's game on Saturday against the Spurs will tip off at 7 p.m. CT.
