@spursreporter: Spurs rookie Jayden Quaintance also recently had knee surgery and is also dealing with meniscus-level pathology. Both players suffered previous right-knee issues. Edwards with chronic pain and inflammation, and Quaintance with a complex collegiate right-knee injury history. But while Anthony Edwards’ in-season "scope and snip" procedure removes damaged meniscus tissue to rush him back in 6 to 8 weeks, Jayden Quaintance’s situation is about long-term joint preservation. Because Quaintance just turned 19, the Spurs reportedly opted for a full structural repair rather than a quick cleanup, prioritizing his knee health over the next decade. San Antonio is taking a patient, redshirt development approach, while Minnesota is making a win-now playoff compromise. #Spurs #PorVida #GoSpursGo #Timberwolves
