Despite being just 24 years old, one has to believe that Anthony Edwards has a lot of pull in the Timberwolves’ locker room. That usually comes with being the best player on your team.
While Minnesota saw its five-game losing streak come to an end on Monday against the Suns, Chris Finch made an adjustment to his rotation. Instead of Rob Dillingham receiving spot minutes, his playing time went to Bones Hyland. Hyland scored 14 of the team’s 23 points off the bench (in just 16 minutes), and going by postgame comments, it seems as if Edwards has been a big fan of the 25-year-old.
