Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniel and Jordan McLaughlin have been ruled questionable by the Timberwolves ahead of the team's game in Dallas Thursday night.

Edwards was inactive for Minnesota's 121-107 loss to the Pelicans Monday night. The young guard played 37 minutes last Wednesday in his return after a two-game layoff due to a hip pointer injury. Two days later Edwards was pulled less than four minutes into the game against the Grizzlies, having aggravated the injury. 

Edwards practiced Wednesday, with Timberwolves radio announcer Alan Horton taking video of Edwards looking rather spry on the hardwood. 

McDaniels and McLaughlin both made their returns Monday night after long injury layoffs. McDaniels had been inactive since suffering an ankle injury on Nov. 20. He played 27 minutes and scored 12 points against the Pelicans. 

McLaughlin played just over eight minutes, scoring three points on a half-court shot  after being out since Nov. 6 with a knee injury.

Minnesota is looking to bounce back after just their fifth loss of the season. It won't be an easy task with the 15-8 Mavericks holding a 7-4 home record and riding a four-game win streak.
