Anthony Edwards wants the Michael Jordan comparisons to stop, but the Minnesota Timberwolves star can’t help but be like Mike.
Edwards was at it again on Monday night at Ball Arena, as he poured in 27 points to help Minnesota to a 106-80 victory over the Denver Nuggets, solidifying a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.

“He looked as quick and as athletic as I’ve seen him look,” Bengals quarterback coach Brad Kragthorpe said. “He looked like the Joe Burrow we’re used to seeing.

The Denver Nuggets were absolutely hammered by the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday night, losing Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal series 106-80. After the game, Nuggets coach Michael Malone gave a brutal assessment of where his team stood.
Malone did not sound happy when addressing his team’s loss. He said, “They kicked our a–. Yeah, it got away from us. It’s going to be a challenge. The body language is not where I think it needs to be. We just got beat up in our building. We got embarrassed in front of our fans.

Deion Sanders took some time out of his day last week to call out a random social media troll after his son and star Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders fired off a questionable post himself. Now, Coach Prime is explaining why he went down that path, and his excuse is eye-roll inducing.
The drama involving both Deion and Shedeur seems to have stemmed from a post the young QB shared on X, formerly Twitter, criticizing one of his now-former teammates, Xavier Smith.

George Bissell breaks down the arrival of top prospects Kyle Manzardo and Christian Scott in addition to a strong stretch from veteran Jameson Taillon.
