## Resource

Anthony Edwards is being pushed to become a true two-way superstar, as Timberwolves coach Chris Finch demands serious defensive upgrades from him. While Edwards possesses elite athleticism and has flashed lockdown potential, his off-ball defense and consistency have been lacking, impacting the team’s overall defense. With LaMelo Ball now in the fold, Edwards should have more energy to focus on defense — especially since Jaden McDaniels will likely handle forward duties. The roster is built to support Edwards’ defensive growth, and his improvement is critical for the team’s success and playoff potential.
