🐺 Ant-Man’s Takeover: Edwards Drops 40 as Wolves Mauled Mavericks! 🏀🔥 

The Minnesota Timberwolves returned from the All-Star break exactly how they left it—with Anthony Edwards looking like the best player on the planet. Fresh off his 2026 All-Star Game MVP honors in Los Angeles, "Ant" delivered a masterpiece at Target Center, dropping 40 points to lead Minnesota to a convincing 122-111 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.

The win marks Minnesota's third straight victory and further cements their status as a powerhouse in the Western Conference.

🛡️ Gobert Rules the Paint

While Edwards handled the perimeter, Rudy Gobert was an absolute force at the rim. The "Stifle Tower" dominated the glass with a massive double-double:

  • 22 Points

  • 17 Rebounds

  • 3 Blocks

Gobert’s presence made life miserable for the Mavs, who were playing without rookie sensation Cooper Flagg (foot injury). Minnesota out-rebounded Dallas 54-46, largely thanks to Rudy’s 10 offensive boards.

✨ The Naz Reid Effect

As always, the "Naz Reid" chants echoed through the arena. Coming off the bench, Reid provided the spark that extinguished any Dallas comeback hopes:

  • 21 Points

  • 7 Rebounds

  • 4 Assists | 2 Blocks

  • 4 Three-Pointers

Reid’s versatility was on full display, highlighted by a viral behind-the-back move into a poster slam over Daniel Gafford that set the internet on fire.
