As the familiar stars such as Durant, Irving and Harden gradually grow old, the NBA is actually starting to find new stars to become the new signboard of the league, and Edwards, who happens to be the hottest champion of the league in recent years, and his own football skills have also improved a lot, and he has also become a popular popular fan in the NBA. Although this season has been the two consecutive years since he entered the Western Conference Finals stage, if he wants to go further and enter the finals stage, Edwards does have to practice for a while.
The second season of his career allowed him to break through 20+ points per game. This season Edwards has gone to the next level. He gave a career-best 27.6 points in the regular season. While being selected as the All-Star again, he was also selected as the All-Star team for two consecutive years. In the playoffs, against the Warriors and Lakers, Edwards' performance was pretty good, but in the Western Conference Finals against the Thunder led by Alexander, the Timberwolves still highlighted their immature side. With the current total score behind the Thunder 1-3, it is indeed very difficult for the Timberwolves to complete a comeback and enter the finals through a tiebreak.
As the well-deserved core player of this Timberwolves, Edwards' performance in this round of the series against the Thunder was indeed not very stable. In the three games lost by the team, he scored less than 20+ in two games. In the only game that scored 32 points, he only had a dismal star with 1 of 9 shots outside the three-point line. In fact, in the G4 game, the Timberwolves' bench filled in the sluggish vacancy of Randall and Edwards. Randall, as the second leader who has not proved himself before, is normal to stealth in such a high-end game, but Edwards is the core of the Timberwolves' decision. If he cannot take over the game in a critical game, then the Timberwolves are destined to be unable to go far.
In this playoffs, Edwards' performance directly determines the outcome of the Timberwolves. In the nine games he won, he averaged 27.4 points, 7.7 rebounds and 7 assists per game, with his shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage of 47.3% and 43% respectively, but in the five games he lost, he averaged only 22.8 points, 8.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game, and his shooting percentage and 3-point shooting percentage fell to 42.7% and 21.6%. If the Timberwolves missed the finals this season, it is actually understandable. After all, Edwards may still take some time to polish it before he can truly transform into the star of a championship team.
For Edwards, he suffered less in the early stages of his career. In the first two playoff trips, he encountered the first round of the game. Although his scoring data was above 25+ (the highest average of 31.6 points in the 22-23 season), the team was unable to win, and everything was useless. Now what Edwards has to do is to keep his score at a high level, and the team can still win. This is indeed necessary to break through the bottleneck. If he really falls at the feet of the Thunder this year, it will be a good motivation for Edwards, so that he can realize how to exert force at critical moments and how to play a real core player.
