Edwards picked up two technicals and was tossed with five minutes left in the third quarter of Minnesota’s 111-102 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Unless the league rescinds one of the technicals, Edwards will miss Friday night’s game against the Jazz in Utah.

Edwards’ first technical foul of the night came in the first quarter after he and Lakers forward Jarred Vanderbilt got into a shoving match.

His complaining about a no-call in the third after he thought he was fouled got him tossed, and Edwards said later that the league should rescind the second one.

But after the game, official James Williams said Edwards cursed at an official, leading to his ejection.

Edwards is averaging 27.3 points, six rebounds and 4.6 assists for Minnesota this season.
