- Edwards banked a 3-foot shot with 16.8 seconds remaining to secure a 104-103 win after Minnesota trailed San Antonio by 19 points.
- Victor Wembanyama had 29 points in his starting return but missed a late jumper over Julius Randle, whose defense helped seal the outcome.
- The Timberwolves were without head coach Chris Finch due to illness, with assistant Micah Nori acting as head coach.
- Rudy Gobert was assessed his fifth Flagrant 1 of the season vs. the Spurs, which by rule triggers a one-game suspension.
- The win followed a split home-and-home with Cleveland, where Edwards earlier became the third-youngest to 10,000 points in a 131-122 win before the Cavaliers answered 146-134 with five players scoring at least 20.
