During the Timberwolves' home game against the Sacramento Kings, Anthony Edwards, their star player, unexpectedly exited at halftime due to personal reasons.
Allen Stiles from Sactown Sports 1140 reported that the Kings' broadcast revealed Edwards' abrupt leave was because of his child being born.
Following Edwards' departure, Timberwolves' guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker stepped in to start the second half. Before leaving, Edwards had managed to score 11 points in 19 minutes.
Edwards, having earned recognition as an NBA All-Star twice, was playing impressively this season before Friday's game with an average of 26.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game.

Who is Anthony Edwards's Girlfriend
Anthony Edwards, who is in a relationship with Jeanine Robel, and soon-to-be father, has found himself in the middle of controversies.
Robel, an Instagram influencer and expectant mother, often posts photos of her baby bump at NBA games and other events on social media.
Previously, she had a son with famous rapper Chief Keef. Sources online suggest that Robel and Edwards have been together for several months, an announcement made after a game against the Houston Rockets last season.
At 29, Robel is nine years older than Edwards. Born into a Christian family in the United States, she is an American who prefers to keep a low profile and doesn't disclose much about her professional life.
However, the harmony doesn't last long as Edwards faces accusations of infidelity. A social media model alleges that he tried to cheat on Robel by inviting her to fly with him after a game where he had scored 44 points.
More allegations soon followed, including claims about his involvement in an abortion posted by a woman on social media.
