Edwards was added to the injury report on Tuesday but wound up playing against the Heat. Will the same happen against Cleveland on Thursday night?
The 24-year-old Edwards became the third-youngest player ever to reach 10,000 points. He crossed the mark with his newfound midrange game.
In the middle of the fourth quarter on Thursday, Anthony Edwards posted up on the right side of the floor and called for the ball. After catching a high lob from Naz Reid, he pump faked, took one dribble to create space and drained a fadeaway jumper over multiple defenders.
On Thursday night, the Timberwolves star became the third-youngest player in NBA history to score 10,000 career points. At just 24 years and 156 days old, Edwards is also one of seven players who have hit the mark before age 25, putting him alongside Kobe Bryant, Luka Doncic, Tracy McGrady and Carmelo Anthony and more.
The Cavs hosted the Timberwolves in a matinee televised by Prime Video. Here's how the action unfolded at Rocket Arena.
