Wolves 134, Spurs 122: In Scoring Trouble? Better Call Jaylen
Photo by David Berding/Getty ImagesMinnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards took responsibility for his team’s lack of energy in a disappointing loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night, before ending his answer with five words and a patented Ant smile.
“I’ll be better. Trust me.”
It didn’t take long for Edwards to make good on that statement.
The ascending star confidently drained a 3-pointer to begin the scoring just 20 seconds into the game, before doubling that opening lead — and his total made 3s from Monday’s loss — with another triple just 32 seconds later. Better he was, right from the tip.
