Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves suffered yet another loss to continue their average run this season. Facing off against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Wolves fell tantalizingly close as they lost with a scoreline of 125-127. With this defeat, the Timberwolves now have 20 wins and 18 losses, placing them eighth in the Western Conference.
However, despite the loss, an interesting moment came in the third quarter of the game. With 1:29 left on the clock, Rudy Gobert gained impressive height to finish off a picture perfect dunk. Anthony Edwards, who was on the bench at the moment, flexed his muscles to express his excitement. Unfortunately, the action did not sit well with the referee as Edwards was called for a technical foul.
Edwards’ expression was pure gold as he had a shocked look on his face. Giving the referee a blank look, Edwards could not fathom why he was being booked for flexing from the bench. Meanwhile, as this was a controversial decision for Edwards, the Timberwolves’ star extended a heartwarming gesture towards a fan recently.
Anthony Edwards Pays A Heartwarming Tribute To Young Fan

“I’ll wear this the rest of my career… just for you.” said an emotional Ant.
Surely enough, Edwards kept his promise as he could be seen donning the same band against the Los Angeles Clippers. Thus, while Edwards gave a hint of his soft, inner self, the foul call was surely an out of the blue occurrence that left the Wolves star stumped.
