The Minnesota Timberwolves have found themselves on the brink of elimination after Monday night's Game 4 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, now looking to become one of the very few teams (13 in NBA playoff history) to climb out of a 3-1 series hole.
Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards had a very quiet night in the 128-126 defeat, as he got locked up by the Thunder's swarming defense all game long. OKC's stifling game plan to prevent Edwards from getting hot succeeded from the start, when Edwards took just two shots from the floor in the first half. The 23-year-old went on to finish with 16 points on 5-of-13 shooting, with as many turnovers as he had field goals. Edwards's five field goals were tied for the second-fewest he's ever had in a career playoff game.
