Anthony Edwards finished the victory with 37 points, six rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block while shooting 12/22 from the field and 9/15 from the three-point range in 30 minutes of playing time.

50 — Anthony Edwards, 2024-25
46 — Stephen Curry, 2022-23

Edwards made 9 tonight without playing the 4th quarter.”
Edwards is off to an excellent start to the year with averages of 29.0 points, 5.9 rebounds and 3.6 assists per contest while shooting 48.9% from the field and 48.1% from the three-point range in nine games.
Following the Trail Blazers, the Timberwolves will play their next game on Sunday when they host Bam Adebayo and the Miami Heat at the Target Center.
Edwards was the first pick in the 2020 NBA Draft after one season of college basketball at Georgia.
The two-time All-Star is coming off a year where he led the Timberwolves to the Western Conference finals for the first time since the 2004 season.
He also won a Gold medal with Team USA at the 2024 Olympics in Paris over the summer.
