Anthony Edwards rejoined the Minnesota Timberwolves lineup on Monday night after a six-game absence. His return, however, began with an unexpected twist as he was not on the court for the opening tip-off against the Dallas Mavericks.
After a period of speculation, Edwards eventually entered the game over a minute into the first quarter. Following the Timberwolves' dominant 124-94 win, Edwards candidly explained the delay to reporters, stating he was "taking a sh*t" and that Mike Conley had "held it down" for him.
Despite the peculiar start, Edwards made an immediate impact on the game. He logged 23 minutes, scoring 17 points on efficient 7-of-13 shooting, including two dunks and two three-pointers. He also contributed defensively throughout his playing time.
