Wolves’ Star Anthony Edwards Is Growing Right Before Our Eyes

With no Karl Anthony-Towns, D’Angelo Russell, and even secondary ball-handlers like Kyle Anderson and Jordan McLaughlin, Minnesota Timberwolves Head Coach Chris Finch threw Anthony Edwards into a lead guard role. The results have been fruitful. In his last four games, Edwards has 32 assists and just 10 turnovers.
But looking through his dimes, they aren’t super eye-popping. He isn’t manipulating a defense with his eyes and body like Dallas Mavericks star Luka Don\u010di\u0107 or putting the drop big in a blender with his floater/lob game like Atlanta Hawks floor general Trae Young.
