Anthony Edwards had 18 of his 43 points in the third quarter to help the Minnesota Timberwolves pull away from the Utah Jazz for a 116-105 victory to secure a spot in the playoffs and stay out of the play-in games.

It was a good thing for the Timberwolves that the NBA rescinded the technical foul Anthony Edwards received in Friday’s game. As Edwards’ teammates struggled to find a groove against a tanking Utah team, Edwards put the Wolves on his back in the third quarter Sunday at Target Center and broke open what became a 116-105 win for the Wolves.

The Minnesota Timberwolves didn't make it easy on themselves, but they accomplished their top priority, beating the Utah Jazz 116-105 Sunday at Target Center in Minneapolis to secure a top-six seed in the Western Conference playoffs.
