The Minnesota Timberwolves have been hit hard by injuries this season. The team is currently without several key players, including Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards, and D'Angelo Russell. This has left the Timberwolves struggling to compete in a tough Western Conference.
Towns Out with Calf Injury
Towns, the team's All-Star center, has been out since November with a calf injury. He is averaging 20.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game this season. His absence has been a major blow to the Timberwolves, who are now 12-15 without him.

Edwards, the team's young star, has missed the past two games with a hip injury. He is averaging 21.5 points and 4.7 rebounds per game this season. Russell, the team's point guard, has been out since December with an ankle injury. He is averaging 16.9 points and 6.2 assists per game this season.
Timberwolves Struggling Without Key Players
The Timberwolves have struggled to win without their key players. They have lost their last five games and are now 16-19 overall. The team is currently 11th in the Western Conference, and they are in danger of missing the playoffs.
Outlook for the Timberwolves
The Timberwolves are hoping to get their injured players back soon. Towns is expected to return in January, while Edwards and Russell are expected to return in February. Once they get healthy, the Timberwolves should be a playoff contender. However, they will need to stay healthy in order to make a deep run in the playoffs.
