During Karl-Anthony Towns’ nine years in Minnesota, he became the franchise leader in 40+ point game, a record many thought would take a long time to be broken. However, Anthony Edwards just proved last night that he only needed five seasons in the NBA to tie his former teammate’s historic mark.

After a 49-point outing, Anthony Edwards reflected on tying Karl Anthony-Towns' record for most 40-point games in Wolves franchise history.

Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards made NBA history in arguably his team's best performance of the season. With less than 7 minutes remaining in a dominant 133-104 win over the Denver Nuggets on Jan. 25, Edwards floated back to the logo where he took a pass from Mike Conley and released a jumper from 32 feet.
