The Minnesota Timberwolves roared to a 126-109 victory over the Phoenix Suns in Game 3 of the NBA Western Conference playoffs Friday, securing a 3-0 series lead for the first time in franchise history. 🎉 The young squad, led by 22-year-old phenom Anthony Edwards, is rewriting its narrative after decades of postseason struggles.
Edwards dropped a jaw-dropping 36 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists 🔥, matching Timberwolves legend Kevin Garnett’s record of seven 30+ point playoff games. Fans are dubbing him the \"New King of the T-Wolves\" as he channels the energy of the team’s 2004 Western Conference Finals run.
🏀 \"We’re making history, but we’re not done yet,\" Edwards said postgame. With their sights set on a first-round sweep, the Wolves are proving that youth and hunger can shake up the NBA playoffs. 💪
