Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns will be out indefinitely due to a left wrist injury.

Head coach Ryan Saunders told reporters Wednesday that Towns will miss some of the T-Wolves' upcoming games, but he didn't provide a specific timeline, according to The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski.

Towns didn't participate in the team's practice, but he was wearing a brace on his left wrist as he took one-handed free throws with his right hand.

The 24-year-old was held out of Minnesota's final game before the All-Star break. It's still unclear when Towns suffered the injury.

The Kentucky product has had trouble staying healthy this season. He previously missed 15 games due to a left knee sprain.

Towns is averaging 26.5 points, 10.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.2 blocks across 35 appearances this season.
