On May 21, the NBA playoffs continued. In the first game of the Western Conference Finals, the Timberwolves lost to the Thunder away, and the score in the series became 0-1!

Although he suffered a defeat, Edwards, the Timberwolves star, performed very well. In the whole game, Edwards played for a total of 37 minutes, making 5 of 13 shots, including 3 of 8 three-pointers and 5 of 7 free throws, scoring a total of 18 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, and 4 mistakes were made at the same time. In the first quarter, Edwards quickly made a three-pointer, then he made a mid-range jump shot and scored through a free throw. After that, Edwards was still returning to defend Jaylen Williams, a big hat. However, before the end of the first quarter, Edwards broke through and sprained his ankle in a round. He chose to continue the game, but after the end of the first quarter, Edwards returned to the locker room for treatment and did not return to the court until the middle of the second quarter. After returning to the court, Edwards' touch dropped, and he only made one three-pointer with four shots in a single quarter. After the third quarter began, he quickly hit a three-pointer again to help the team withstand the Thunder's counterattack. However, the Timberwolves were unable to resist the Thunder's offensive and were overtaken by 10 points after three quarters. In the final quarter, Edwards made only one move and failed to hit, but he was defeated. Throughout the second half, Edwards scored only 2 of 6 shots and scored 5 points.

It should be noted that in this game, Edwards targeted the opponent's star Alexander many times. In the first quarter, Edwards smashed the ball directly at Alexander because of dissatisfaction with the penalty, and suffered a technical foul. In the second quarter, Edwards and Alexander fell into tangle again and finally got another foul.
