Anthony Edwards' Lack of Help Ripped by NBA Fans as Jokić, Nuggets Shine vs. Wolves

Doric SamMay 12, 2024

Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards had yet another eye-popping performance in Sunday's Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Denver Nuggets.

Unfortunately, he didn't have enough help to keep up with the depth of the Nuggets as the Timberwolves suffered a 115-107 loss on their home floor at the Target Center that tied the series 2-2. The road team has been victorious in every game in the series.

Edwards was sensational with 44 points on 16-of-25 shooting for his third 40-point game of the postseason. He had 37 through the first three quarters alone and added five rebounds, five assists, two steals and a block. However, Mike Conley was Minnesota's second-leading scorer with just 15 points. Karl-Anthony Towns was limited to 13 points on 5-of-18 shooting with 12 rebounds. Rudy Gobert chipped in 11 points and 14 rebounds.

The Nuggets kept up the momentum from their Game 3 victory with another blazing performance from the field. Denver finished with 57.0 percent shooting from the field and 44.8 percent from beyond the arc.

Reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokić led the way with 35 points, 16 of which came in the fourth quarter, seven rebounds, seven assists, three steals and a block. Aaron Gordon supported him by scoring 27 points on 11-of-12 shooting, and Jamal Murray added 19 points. The team got 27 combined points off the bench from Christian Braun, Justin Holiday and Reggie Jackson.

Edwards would've loved to have that type of production from his supporting cast. Fans on social media were not happy with how his teammates let him down in Sunday's loss:

The hot-shooting by the Nuggets also earned some praise on social media:

Edwards has been the breakout star of the playoffs, but he can't do everything by himself. If any of his teammates brought their best on Sunday, Minnesota likely would be looking at a commanding 3-1 series lead.

The Timberwolves will try to take back the momentum in Game 5 in Denver on Tuesday.
