In a game critical to the Western Conference playoff picture, the Minnesota Timberwolves, behind 44 points from All-Star guard Anthony Edwards, defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 141-125 on Thursday night at the FedExForum.
In a scoring barrage that included seven made three-pointers and 11 makes from the free throw line, Edwards was at his best in a contest in which the Timberwolves, jockeying for position with the likes of the Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors, needed such an effort from their franchise star.
