PHOENIX – In his rookie season, Anthony Edwards took the floor in Phoenix against the team that would end up representing the Western Conference in the finals that season. Edwards scored a career-high 42 points in a Wolves win, and that game felt like it was Edwards officially putting the NBA on notice. He was coming.
On that same floor, Edwards showed just how far he has come in a little over three years with a systematic dismantling of the Suns in a 126-109 victory that put the Wolves up 3-0 in this playoff series. They are now in prime position to advance in the playoffs for the first time since 2004.
