Edwards accused of inappropriate behavior towards multiple underage girls
In the thrilling Western Conference 2nd round playoff match-up of 2025, the Minnesota Timberwolves suffered a 88-99 defeat against the swaggering Golden State Warriors on May 7, 2025 (Philippine time), costing Timberwolves coach Chris Finch a victory.
A dismayed Finch pointed fingers at one of his players, asserting that the ball should have been in the hands of Anthony Edwards more often.
"Everything starts with Ant," Finch confirmed.
In Game 1, Edwards scored only a single point in the first half, but made an impressive comeback in the second half, finishing with 23 points by the game's end.
"It's all about Ant," Finch emphasized.

While the scores didn't reflect it, Edwards' performance was one for the books. Buddy Hield, on the other hand, scored 24 points for Golden State, and Jimmy Butler chipped in with 20 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists. Other significant contributors for the Warriors were Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Steph Curry.
With a formidable lineup like this, the Timberwolves have a tough road ahead as they head into the remaining games in this series.
"Despite the loss, Finch suggested a different approach for the upcoming games, emphasizing that superstar Anthony Edwards should have more possession of the ball, as he believes everything starts with 'Ant'. In Cebu, basketball fans anxiously anticipate whether Edwards can lead the Timberwolves to victory in the NFL and possibly make an impact in the NBA."
