On Sunday night, the Minnesota Timberwolves pulled off a stunning comeback, overcoming a 19-point deficit to defeat the San Antonio Spurs 104-103. But here's where it gets controversial: While Victor Wembanyama dominated with 29 points in 27 minutes, it was Anthony Edwards' clutch performance that sealed the win. Edwards' 3-foot runner with 16.8 seconds left gave the Timberwolves their first lead at 100-98, and though the Spurs tied it back up with a 3-pointer, Edwards' 23-point outing proved to be the difference. De'Aaron Fox's 3-point attempt near the buzzer missed, sending the Minnesota crowd into a frenzy. The Timberwolves, led by Donte DiVincenzo's 19 points, have now won 16 of their last 20 games since Thanksgiving Day. Naz Reid contributed 17 points and 11 rebounds, while the Spurs' Wembanyama, a plus-17 with seven rebounds and three steals, outshone his fellow Frenchman and ace rim protector, Rudy Gobert. The Timberwolves, playing without head coach Chris Finch due to illness, started the game 16-0 down before finally making their first basket 4:39 into the game. Assistant coach Micah Nori took the lead on the bench for Finch. Up next, the Spurs travel to Oklahoma City on Tuesday night, while the Timberwolves head to Milwaukee.
