No 50-point outburst this time for Anthony Edwards, but he stepped up when needed the most for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Edwards came alive to score 28 of his 37 points in the second half, spearheading a gutsy Timberwolves comeback from 19 points down to beat the Los Angeles Clippers, 108-106, and end a three-game skid.
