Fans erupt after Anthony Edwards posterized Daniel Gafford image

It was only a matter of time before Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards woke up in the Western Conference Finals.

Edwards struggled massively over the first two games and has seemingly struggled since he took a major fall against the Denver Nuggets four games earlier. In the third quarter, it sure seemed like Edwards has woken up.

In the third quarter with the Wolves trying to come back from a double-digit deficit, Edwards posterized Dallas Mavericks forward Daniel Gafford.

That seemed to be the last remaining piece that the Timberwolves needed as they left the third quarter tied. Fans and analysts were raving about the poster dunk, something which is becoming a specialty of Edwards.
