109.566 - 133.058 Dave DuFour

So there's so much seeding work to be done this weekend. And it starts last night where we had a bunch of teams going into the night tied up out in the West. And a couple of them met up, Minnesota and Memphis. So we had a marquee matchup. And let's just be frank about it. The Memphis Grizzlies did not meet the moment in the way that the Minnesota Timberwolves did. Anthony Edwards had 44 points.

134.058 - 155.985 Dave DuFour

Just looked like he came out ready to deliver a knockout blow at any point. And the Timberwolves did third quarter, 52 points. That's the most points in a quarter by any team this season. Anthony Edwards had 19 in that quarter. I mean, it was big game, big game player. And, you know, you know, like we've seen him do this all year long and just step up for these big games.
