Timberwolves Defeat Wizards 120-106

Anthony Edwards led the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 120-106 victory over the Washington Wizards, scoring 20 of his 41 points in the decisive fourth quarter. Despite a sloppy first half with 13 turnovers, the Timberwolves managed to improve their play in the second half, turning over the ball only six times after the break. Edwards, who was fined $50,000 earlier for an obscene gesture, showcased his skills with a mix of 3-pointers and decisive plays to secure the win. Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert contributed significantly, with Randle adding 20 points and 10 rebounds, while Gobert recorded 11 points and 11 rebounds. The Wizards, with a strong 3-point shooting performance, kept the game close until the Timberwolves pulled away with a 28-17 run in the final quarter. This victory marks the Timberwolves' fourth win in five games, while the Wizards suffered their seventh consecutive loss.
