Anthony Edwards scored 37 points as he led the Minnesota Timberwolves' balanced attack in a win over the New Orleans Pelicans, spoiling Brandon Ingram's return from injury. The Wolves trailed at halftime and saw a double-digit lead vanish in the fourth quarter, but the Wolves managed to pull out the win. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) breaks down the Wolves' impressive second-half performance on both ends of the floor, as well as individual studs and duds.

If Anthony Edwards wants to be taken more seriously as a candidate for the All-Star Game -- and someday, for All-NBA -- he needs to bring more consistency on defense for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) talks about Edwards' impossibly high defensive ceiling, and why it's so maddening that he can turn in duds like Monday's loss to the Houston Rockets. Plus, a look at the trade rumors surrounding Naz Reid and a pair of players the Wolves reportedly could have interest in. Lastly, a preview of Wolves-Pelicans.
