Edwards scores 24 as Wolves outlast Bucks 103-100 for their 9th win in 11 games

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Anthony Edwards scored 24 points despite a poor night shooting and the Minnesota Timberwolves rode timely 3-pointers from Donte DiVincenzo and Terrence Shannon Jr. to a 103-100 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday.

Two days after closing out defending champion Oklahoma City in its third loss of the season, Edwards went 7 for 24 from the field and 2 for 11 from 3-point range, leading six Wolves in double figures. DiVincenzo made 4 of 8 3-point attempts for 18 points, and Rudy Gobert had 11 points and 18 rebounds, becoming the 45th NBA player with 10,000 rebounds.

Edwards’ driving layup with 21 seconds left gave Minnesota a 103-97 lead and sealed the Wolves’ ninth win in their past 11 games.

Kevin Porter Jr. finished an assist short of a triple-double with 24 points, 10 rebounds and four steals in the Bucks’ third straight loss. Bobby Portis and Ryan Rollins added 16 points apiece.
