The Minnesota Timberwolves haven't had the best start to the Western Conference Finals.
They came off of their historic game seven win over the Denver Nuggets just to lose the first two games to the Dallas Mavericks at home by a total of four points. In those games, the Timberwolves missed 30 shots at the rim and saw their best players struggle mightily.
One of their star players is guard Anthony Edwards, who only shot 5-for-17 from the floor against the Mavericks in game two. Things went so poorly for Edwards that he was caught being administered oxygen during the fourth quarter.
During the time Anthony Edwards was checked out of the game from 7:53 to 5:31 remaining in the 4th Q, the Wolves guard put on a face mask to receive oxygen in the tunnel by the Minnesota bench.

That's not great, especially when you consider how gassed he looked against the Mavericks in game one on Wednesday night. Will Edwards be able to turn things around? Only time will tell, but it's not a great start so far.
