2024 Paris Olympics Quarterfinals: Anthony Edwards and Team USA Steamroll Brazil, France Upsets Canada

All four Minnesota Timberwolves’ Olympians were in action Tuesday in the Quarterfinals of the 2024 Paris Olympics. The winners would move on to the Semifinals, setting themselves up to compete in the medal round, while the dream for an Olympic medal will end for the losers.

Anthony Edwards (USA)

After going 3-0 in the group stage with a point differential of +64, Team USA was able to secure the top seed and a matchup with Team Brazil, who has the least amount of NBA talent of the eight remaining teams.

The United States asserted their dominance early taking a double-digit lead halfway through the first quarter, a lead that would only grow throughout the first half.
