Can Anthony Edwards outshine Stephen Curry in Game 1? (May 6, 2025)

Edwards enters this series in top form, averaging 26.8 points per game in the previous round. His explosive scoring and confidence make him a key factor against the Warriors’ defense.

With Edwards healthy and no major injuries affecting either team, this matchup promises high-intensity basketball. The Timberwolves will rely on their star guard to counter Curry’s shooting, while the Warriors must contain Minnesota’s physical frontcourt of Randle and Gobert.
