When Anthony Edwards locks in defensively, his combination of strength and vertical pop turns him into a rim protector extraordinaire. Midway through the third quarter with the score knotted at 75, Denver's Bruce Brown thought he had a clear path to the bucket on a fast break. Edwards had other plans, tracking Brown's running layup attempt from the weak side and meeting him at the summit. The Timberwolves star swats the shot with authority, keeping the game deadlocked and igniting the Target Center crowd. Edwards tallied 26 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks despite Minnesota falling 123-112 to the Nuggets on November 15, 2025. · Nov 16, 2025
