3 biggest takeaways for Sixers following tough loss to Timberwolves

PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia 76ers dropped their 11th straight game on Saturday when they fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves 114-109. The Sixers gave the Timberwolves all they could handle, but Minnesota superstar Anthony Edwards was too much to handle in the end.

The Sixers did rally and held a lead in the fourth quarter, but the Timberwolves used a steady diet of Edwards down the stretch, and the Sixers couldn't answer. Edwards scored 37 points with 18 coming in the fourth quarter. He knocked down four triples in the final frame including a tough fallaway 3-pointer on the wing over heavily contested defense.
