Anthony Edwards Keeps Making History
Edwards tied Julius Randle for the most points in the game (24) but one of those buckets also put Edwards in some elite company.
The 23-year-old became the youngest player to reach 800 career three-pointers in NBA history (23 years, 82 days) and tied Steph Curry for the fifth-fastest (305 career games) in league history. It happened on his first made three of the night.
Additionally, Edwards also became the fourth-fastest player to reach 7,000 career points, trailing only Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant and LeBron James.
Edwards once again didn’t shoot well, putting up a 9-for-21 line from the field and 5-for-12 from three. But his late game heroics helped the Wolves do enough to win, as he hit a late three and scored on a breakaway dunk to seal the game late.
