The The Minnesota Timberwolves won 122-111 over the Dallas Mavericks on Friday night. It was a strong performance from Anthony Edwardsas he looked in great shape after the All-Star break. However, shortly after the win, Edwards revealed that he had missed a dunk opportunity Daniel Gafford.

During his post-match interview, the 24-year-old defender said he felt fresh and seemed pleased with his performance. But he admitted that he was should have nailed it on Gafford. Edwards even sent a message to the Mavericks center.

“I should have dunked on Gafford,” Edwards said. “I hope you see this. I should have spanked your ass, but I spared you.”

Anthony Edwards led the Timberwolves with 40 points, six rebounds and one assist. He hit that line by shooting 53.3% from the floor and 38.4% from beyond the three-point line. The four-time All-Star looked as good as ever and looks more than ready to lead Minnesota into the final stretch of the regular season.

Edwards is in the midst of perhaps the best season of his career to date. Through 47 games played, the six-year veteran is averaging a career-high 29.5 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game while shooting a career-high 49.4% field goal percentage and a career-high 40.1% three-point percentage.

The The Timberwolves seem to be getting hot at the right time. With the club sitting in sixth place in the Western Conference, Minnesota is 7-3 in its last 10 games and is currently on a three-game winning streak. We’ll see Anthony Edwards and his teammates back in action on Sunday when they take on the Philadelphia 76ers at home.
