After trouncing the Lakers in the first round of the NBA Playoffs, Timberwolves superstar Anthony Edwards dapped up LeBron James, who had just five words for him:
“Make that next step now.”
Minnesota dominated in the series, winning three out of their four dubs by double-digits, and putting the clamps on the Lakers’ offense. In the closest game of the series, Edwards delivered a signature 43-point performance in Game 4.
Upon returning to the West Coast, the Timberwolves were still 5.5 point underdogs. In the closeout game, Edwards cooled off, scoring 15 points.nBut it didn’t even matter as Minnesota’s depth took over and they won the series, 103-96.
After the game, as fans shuffled out of the Crypto.com arena, Edwards took a victory lap around the LA where he was greeted by numerous fans and heckling Lakers fans. Hilariously, even Laker fans were going up to Edwards asking for photos or handshakes, despite having been trounced by the Ant-Man himself.
In his postgame interaction with LeBron, James told the Georgia product to “Make that next step now.”
Edwards and the T-Wolves will now await to see who they’ll play next, as Warriors are tangled in a gritty first-round matchup with the Houston Rockets.
But for now, Edwards seems to be basking in the glory of his victories out in Cali
