Anthony Edwards put his body on the line to try to bring a championship to Minnesota π
βHe told teammates he really believed that if he could get back on the court after his injuries, the Wolves could win a title. He pushed his body to the edge to try to make it happen.β

Ausar Thompsonβs athletic ability is insane π³
He is one of the most freakish athletes in the NBA, a 6β7β forward with a 7β2β wingspan, elite burst, and the kind of instincts and motor that make him a terror on both ends of the floor. He plays with relentless energy, crashing the offensive glass, jumping passing lanes, and getting out in transition before defenses can even set up. In Game 6 against the Cavaliers last night, a 115-94 Detroit blowout that evened the series 3-3 heading into a Game 7, Ausar was a force. He finished with 10 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, and 4 steals, shot an efficient 4 of 6 from the field, and posted an eye popping plus 12. He also converted both of his fast break attempts, which is pure Ausar, getting out and finishing in the open floor where his athleticism takes over. With Game 7 on Sunday, heβll be a crucial X factor for the Pistons.ββββββββββββββββ
