Rotowire
Edwards closed with 26 points (8-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 25 minutes in Monday's 122-104 preseason win over the Knicks.
Edwards returned from a one-game absence for rest purposes and looked fantastic, knocking down a game-high five triples en route to finishing as the game's leading scorer. The star guard has scored in double figures in all three of his preseason appearances, though Monday marked his heaviest workload yet, surpassing the 20-minute mark while also reaching 20-plus points for the first time.

Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Nets 14 points with two blocks
Rotowire
Edwards notched 14 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two swats over 18 minutes in Monday's 116-97 preseason win over the Bucks.
Edwards was a bit rusty in his preseason debut, converting just one of his seven three-point attempts while also coughing up two turnovers, but he did a nice job of getting to the line and he was locked in on defense. Edwards was a top-15 player last season with averages of 28.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 3.4 triples, 1.4 steals and 0.8 swats per contest, and he could be even better coming into his age-25 season.
