Timberwolves' Karl-Anthony Towns: Dealing with wrist injury

Towns said he's dealing with heavy soreness after suffering a left wrist injury during Saturday's 116-111 win over the Jazz, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

The 25-year-old returned to the contest after suffering the injury, but it was mostly to serve as a decoy. Towns finished the victory with 16 points (6-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds, four blocks, three assists and one steal in 30 minutes, but the injury is of far more importance for Minnesota. He's expected to undergo X-rays, and his status for Sunday's matchup with the Lakers is very much in doubt.
