Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves have a 3-1 lead over LeBron James, Luka Doncic and the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the 2025 NBA playoffs. The Timberwolves, who were underdogs in this series, are one win away from eliminating the Lakers, who were considered title contenders by many since they have James and Doncic.

Luka Doncic tried to meet Anthony Edwards at the rim. He shouldn't have. The star Minnesota Timberwolves guard threw down an emphatic slam over the Los Angeles Lakers standout during the third quarter of Game 3 of their first-round Western Conference playoff series to the delight of the Target Center crowd in Minneapolis.
