The duality of Anthony Edwards really makes him one of the most unpredictable players in the NBA. He can trash-talk and kill you on the court, but he gives credit and shows appreciation off the court that show he's still a student of the game and possibly kind at heart. However, when the fierce competitor comes out, there's no stopping Edwards.

Steph Curry missed his third straight contest on Monday night after the Golden State Warriors superstar sustained a hamstring injury in Game 1 of their second-round NBA playoffs series against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have Anthony Edwards. The Golden State Warriors do not. Sometimes, it's just that simple. The Wolves, led by Edwards' 30 points and five assists, beat the Dubs 117-110 on Monday night to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the semifinals of the Western Conference playoffs.
