Jaden McDaniels rolls ankle on KAT’s foot

McDaniels left the game early in the first quarter.

Jaden McDaniels left Monday night’s game against the Knicks with an apparent ankle injury. 

The standout defensive stopper appeared to roll his right ankle when he stepped on the foot of Karl-Anthony Towns while defending Jalen Brunson early in the first quarter. 

McDaniels was able to limp to the bench on his own but the Timberwolves ruled him out for the rest of the game with a right ankle sprain.
