Dallas, Texas – Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Anthony Edwards is gearing up for a crucial Game 3 against the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference finals. With the series poised at 2-0 in favor of Dallas, Edwards is focused on leading his team to victory by upping his scoring output.
Having averaged 20 points but shooting only 33.3% through the first two games, Edwards is determined to be more aggressive on offense. The young guard is ready to take control of the game and provide the scoring punch his team desperately needs. In the previous round against the Denver Nuggets, Edwards showcased his scoring ability by averaging nearly 28 points per game.
Despite a costly turnover in Game 2 versus Dallas, Edwards remains confident in his abilities and his team’s chances. He acknowledges his late-game decision-making error but is determined to bounce back and lead the Timberwolves to a win on the road.
Teammate Jaden McDaniels also chimed in, discussing the team’s defensive strategy late in the game against Mavericks star Luka Doncic. Although Doncic hit a game-winning shot over Rudy Gobert in Game 2, the Timberwolves are looking to make the necessary adjustments to stifle Doncic in future matchups.
The Timberwolves, now facing a 2-0 deficit in the series, are looking to draw inspiration from their road success this postseason. With a 5-1 record away from home, including a crucial Game 7 victory against the Nuggets, Minnesota remains confident in their ability to bounce back.
As they prepare for Game 3, the Timberwolves are focused on staying together, making crucial adjustments, and seizing the opportunity to turn the series around. With Edwards leading the charge and his teammates locked in, Minnesota is poised to give their all in what promises to be a thrilling matchup against Dallas.
