NBA Rescinds Anthony Edwards Technical Foul for Taunting in Timberwolves-Nuggets

The NBA officially rescinded a technical foul called on Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards after completing a league review Sunday.

The foul occurred in the third quarter of the Timberwolves' 106–99 win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. After driving to the hoop for a layup, Edwards stared down Nuggets guard Reggie Jackson for a brief moment and was quickly whistled for a technical foul.

Edwards was stunned. So were NBA analysts Jamal Crawford and Reggie Miller on the TNT broadcast.
