It happened with under five minutes remaining in the first quarter as the T-Wolves held a 27-26 lead. On their offensive possession, Edwards took the ball to the top of the three-point circle, then drove straight down the lane and exploded to the rim for a powerful dunk that brought his teammates to their feet. Edwards moved to the basket so fast that the Pistons defenders couldn't react in time to stop him.
Edwards has thrown down some monster slam dunks in his career, and this was a great one to add to his resume.
Edwards finished the game with 27 points (tied for the team lead in scoring with Karl-Anthony Towns) and dished 8 assists in 33 minutes as the T-Wolves beat the Pistons 124-117 to maintain the pace as the top seed in the Western Conference.
