Anthony Edwards was blazing as he got a Dwyane Wade NBA Playoffs record and led the Timberwolves to a Game 4 win over the Spurs.

In a thrilling Game 4 showdown, Anthony Edwards channeled his inner legend, powering the Minnesota Timberwolves to a gritty 114-109 victory over the San Antonio Spurs. The star guard didn't just win the game—he etched his name into the NBA history books alongside Dwyane Wade.

Playing with the kind of relentless energy that defines playoff basketball, Edwards logged a grueling 40 minutes on the court. His stat line was nothing short of spectacular: 36 points on an efficient 59% shooting from the field and a blistering 60% from beyond the arc. He added six rebounds, two assists, and a steal, proving once again why he's the heartbeat of this Timberwolves squad.

The performance was even more impressive considering it came against a Spurs team that, until Victor Wembanyama's ejection, looked poised to steal the game. But Edwards had other plans. By surpassing Wade for the most playoff points by a player under 25 years old, he showed that age is just a number when you have that kind of fire.

For Edwards, this milestone carries extra weight. He's never been shy about his admiration for the Hall of Famer. "I just be watching Dwyane Wade clips," he said earlier this season. "He was beating everything at the rim. So I just be trying to beat everything at the rim. That's all."

Edwards' three-level scoring has put him in elite company. According to StatMuse, only LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Kevin Durant have more 30-point playoff games than him at this stage of his career. With the Timberwolves pushing deeper into the postseason, there's a real chance he could climb past Durant on that list.

For now, the focus is simple: take a commanding 3-2 series lead in Game 5. If Edwards keeps playing like this, the Spurs better be ready for more history.
