In offering yet another demonstration of his toughness, Anthony Edwards rose from a second-quarter ankle injury in the most appropriate manner possible: keeping the crowd on its toes with dazzling play thereafter. On the exclusive list of players capable of shifting a game’s spectrum on either side, the Minnesota Timberwolves star builds an example, finding a wide-open avenue for a left-corner 3-pointer. With his thirst for excellence unquenched, Edwards locks in defensively, pickpocketing a San Antonio Spurs player’s dribble before testing gravity with a picturesque flush in transition, galvanizing the entire arena. This punctuated a stretch in which Edwards assembled a 14-point, three-rebound, two-assist, three-steal, one-block statement in the third period alone. Showered with supportive chants for his efforts in the win on February 27, 2024, Edwards finished with 34 points, five rebounds, five assists, four steals, one block, and four triples. · Feb 28, 2024
