Just a few seconds into the game, Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards checked out due to an apparent injury. He quickly shook it off and returned to the court, and fans will be thankful he did.
Edwards dropped 44 points in the Timberwolves’s 113–111 win over the Indiana Pacers, and despite his prolific offensive numbers, it was on the defensive end late in the game where he made his biggest impact.
With Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin looking to score a game-tying layup, Edwards emphatically leapt into the air and blocked the shot, even nicking his head on the rim in the process.
