Loss to Memphis spoils another special night for Timberwolves' rookie Anthony Edwards

Apart from which team won - for the Wolves it didn't really matter – what transpired at Target Center Wednesday was some impressive entertainment.

Starring: Wolves rookie of the year candidate Anthony Edwards vs. reigning ROY Ja Morant of Memphis.

Back and forth, all night. Morant primarily driving, attacking. Edwards efficient from both inside and out.

Edwards with 42 points, Morant with 37. Edwards willing his team to stay in the game, Morant at one point scoring seven straight for Memphis late in the fourth.

Oh, right, the game: The Wolves traded punches with the Grizzlies for most of the night.
