Anthony Edwards · When the NBA’s marathon men talk about the grueling, doldrum-like stages of the grueling 82-game schedule, they often mention “tired legs” popping up around the late-January, pre-All-Star break stage. In Exhibit No. 1,000 on February 13, 2025, Anthony Edwards confirmed once more that when the rim is within his sights, “Ant-Man” is anything but an average man. Aggressive, and already plotting the steps of his left baseline drive before the basketball swings his way, Edwards leaves Aaron Wiggins in the dust behind, only to find the Oklahoma City Thunder’s feared 7-foot-1 rim protector awaiting his move. Unphased, Edwards forces celebratory roars from commentators and the 18,978 in attendance alike, gliding through the air for a disrespectful one-handed hammer over Chet Holmgren. The night would be one to remember for Edwards, as he added a new poster to his growing collection, and helped end the top-seeded Thunder’s seven-game winning streak. In 36 physical minutes, the Minnesota Timberwolves’ star collected 23 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, and three steals. · State of Mint
