Edwards added nine rebounds and six assists while shooting 12-of-17 from the floor and 5-of-8 from three-point range as the host T-Wolves pulled a game back to be 2-1 behind in the best-of-seven Western Conference finals.
"I was super happy about the physicality and energy we brought," Edwards said. "Being down 2-0, it's all about bringing energy and we brought high energy."
Julius Randle added 24 points for Minnesota, which set a club record for points in a playoff game in ripping the NBA regular-season win leaders and NBA Most Valuable Player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who managed only 14 points.
"We got punched in the mouth," said Gilgeous-Alexander. "You get punched, it's about getting back up. It's about responding. That's what the next challenge is."
