Anthony Edwards' new role is intriguing but not sustainable

Anthony Edwards has been incredible this year. I want to make that clear. He is averaging 28.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.9 assists on 49.4/41.8/82.5 shooting splits. By all accounts, the Minnesota Timberwolves superstar has taken a leap, especially as a scorer.

With the Wolves replacing Mike Conley with Donte DiVincenzo in the starting lineup, they're operating without a traditional point guard. Ant's the closest thing to a point guard. In fact, Cleaning the Glass says that Edwards spends 51 percent of his time as a point guard.

Head coach Chris Finch has said that Ant is "more of" the Wolves' point guard.
