Friday’s game was a far cry from Dec. 19, when the Knicks dominated the Timberwolves in Minnesota, 133-107. That night, Edwards scored just 17 points on 16 shots, deferring to Randle, who was still acclimating to his new team after the trade.

The Minnesota Timberwolves aren’t winning as much as they want, but at least Anthony Edwards is amazing. The 23-year-old broke his single-game career-high with 53 points (16-of-31 FG, 10-of-15 3Pt) in their 119-105 loss to the Detroit Pistons on Saturday night.
