Timberwolves 1st in NBA in defensive rating with defensive player of the year favorite Rudy Gobert.

Dane Moore: Asked Anthony Edwards what he sees Karl-Anthony Towns needing to do in this series against Phoenix: “I see KAT being the MVP of the series if we win it. Because, like I said, they’re gonna put two and three on me, and he’s the best player on the team. So they gonna two and three on me, you leave the best player on the team 1 on 1. I think that’s something we live for. And yeah, he takes the responsibility on defense, and if he does a great job, then we’ll come out on top.” -via Twitter @DaneMooreNBA / April 17, 2024
