Anthony Edwards drops 32 points in New Orleans, spoils Zion Williamson's return
The Minnesota Timberwolves visited the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night as part of their short two-game road trip. The Timberwolves are also set to face the Orlando Magic on Thursday before welcoming the Memphis Grizzlies back at Target Center on Saturday.
In New Orleans, it was an eventful game since it was the return of Zion Williamson from a 27-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Williamson looked great in his first game back, finishing with 22 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals in 27 minutes.
However, it wasn't enough as Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves spoiled Zion's return with a 104-97 win. Edwards had a game-high 32 points plus nine rebounds, three assists and two steals. It was a back-and-forth game before Minnesota took a big lead in the third quarter.
Edwards had plenty of help with Julius Randle contributing 16 points and six rebounds, while Rudy Gobert nabbed an impressive stat line of seven points, 14 rebounds, four assists and six blocks.
The Timberwolves improved to 19-17 for the season, which puts them No. 8 in the West standings. The Pelicans, on the other hand, dropped to 7-30 and the second-worst record in the league.
