Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards might have thrown down the best dunk of the 2023–24 NBA season on Monday night.
Midway through the third quarter of the Wolves’ 114–103 win over the Utah Jazz at Delta Center, Edwards caught a pass from teammate Nickeil Alexander-Walker just inside the three-point line. Without hesitation, Edwards leapt into midair and threw down a thunderous dunk over Jazz forward John Collins.
It was incredible.
“Ain’t no way, bruh,” veteran guard Mike Conley said when watching a replay of the dunk in the Timberwolves’ locker room. “Dunk of the decade.”

“As I threw it, he just took off,” Alexander-Walker said. “Like he didn’t dribble.”
Edwards appeared pretty impressed with himself after watching back the dunk for the first time, too.
Edwards scored 32 points and tallied eight assists and seven rebounds in Minnesota’s win Monday. He also added a dunk that certainly will have a prime spot in his career highlight reel.
