The Minnesota Timberwolves secured a significant 116-99 victory against the New York Knicks, led by the impressive performance of Anthony Edwards, who scored 36 points and grabbed 13 rebounds. This match marked the first time the two teams met post the trade that sent Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks, while both he and Donte DiVincenzo sat out due to injuries. Despite the anticipated homecoming atmosphere, the game saw Edwards flip the momentum with a spectacular dunk that helped seal the win.

As the Timberwolves improved to 22-19 on the season, the Knicks are preparing for their next game against the Atlanta Hawks, scheduled for Monday at Madison Square Garden.
