This series nearly became the Warriors without Stephen Curry against the Timberwolves without Anthony Edwards.

Anthony Edwards had 20 points, nine rebounds, five assists and three steals for a Minnesota team that never trailed. In fact, Minnesota jumped out to a 13-0 lead and even led by double digits for the final 40 minutes and 32 seconds of the game.

In Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals, Minnesota had full control over Golden State, having a lead as large as 25 points. The Timberwolves didn't come away without an injury scare, however, as star shooting guard Anthony Edwards went down in the second quarter with an ankle injury.
