Anthony Edwards,NBA Playoffs,NBA

Kevin Durant had high praise for the young Minnesota star after an electric 40-point performance against the Suns.

Good morning, I’m Dan Gartland. I couldn’t believe how many Knicks fans showed up for Game 4 in Philadelphia. in what promises to be an excellent matchup.

Regardless of how long the T-Wolves’ playoff run lasts, the next few months are going to be enormous for raising Edwards’s profile. He wasto the United States’ roster for this summer’s Olympics in Paris. It’s a tremendous honor for a 22-year-old and a well-deserved one. By the time next season begins, he’ll be a way bigger star than he was at the start of this season.

The future is bright for Edwards and the Timberwolves, but the same can’t be said for the Suns. Phoenix mortgaged its future to acquire Beal and Durant and all it has to show for it is a first-round series victory over the Los Angeles Clippers last year. The Suns are left with an aging and obviously flawed roster without a clear path to improve it. Durant, Beal and Booker are all under contract for the next two seasons at $50 million per year each.

Durant will be 36 when next season begins. Beal will be 31. Two other key players—Grayson Allen and Royce O’Neale—are set to become free agents. Years from now, we may come to view Minnesota’s sweep in this series as a torch-passing moment from one generational star to another. Chris Finch suffered a serious knee injuryfor the Canucks to force overtime against the Predators.
