SALT LAKE CITY – With his 31 points in Saturday's 119-100 Timberwolves victory over Utah, Anthony Edwards passed Kevin Love for first place in franchise history when it comes to the most games 30-plus points scored in a single season with 26.
As point guard Mike Conley heard that statistic mentioned to him after the game, he asked someone nearby, "Did you tell him that?" hoping that the answer was no, because it might give the loquacious Edwards a reason to talk even more.
Unfortunately for Conley, Edwards did know this fact. But that didn't stop Conley from heaping praise on Edwards for the season Edwards has had.
