This series nearly became the Warriors without Stephen Curry against the Timberwolves without Anthony Edwards.

THE MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES The Timberwolves are right back in the thick of things, and best of all, their injury scare to Anthony Edwards was just that -- only a scare. Minnesota knotted up its series with Golden State at one game apiece with a 117-93 win over the Stephen Curry-less Warriors.

Anthony Edwards had 20 points, nine rebounds, five assists and three steals for a Minnesota team that never trailed. In fact, Minnesota jumped out to a 13-0 lead and even led by double digits for the final 40 minutes and 32 seconds of the game.
