Anthony Edwards
April 2026

Anthony Edwards returned from a six-game absence and helped Minnesota hammer Dallas 124-94, giving the Timberwolves a major lift for the closing stretch. He played limited minutes, looked sharp, and said afterward that sitting out had helped him see what the team needed. Reuters reported Edwards scored 17 points in the win, while Ayo Dosunmu produced a triple-double to drive the offense. Edwards also made headlines for missing the opening tip because he was in the bathroom, then coming on shortly after and settling smoothly back into the game flow.
