Anthony Edwards · Players often talk about what they will sacrifice to get a win; very few have been tasked with proving it in the manner that Anthony Edwards did. On the hunt to amend a missed free throw that would have afforded his team a three-point lead with seven seconds left, the Minnesota Timberwolves star pivots into one of the 2023-24 season’s most dazzling defensive displays, soaring through the air for a game-clinching block. Jumping high enough to hit his head on the backboard, Edwards called it the highest jump of his life. Equal parts remarkable and resilient, the two-time All-Star also persevered through two ankle injuries to ensure the memorable win over the Indiana Pacers on March 7, 2023. Most Valuable Player-like in his performance, Edwards’ final line read as follows: 44 points — including 29 in the second half — along with six rebounds, three assists, two steals, two blocks, and three 3-pointers. · State of Mint
