Anthony Edwards vents after Timberwolves defeat: “We didn’t start…”

The young star Anthony Edwards did not run away from the trick questions after the tough defeat of the Minnesota Timberwolves for the Dallas Mavericks last Wednesday, 22nd, by 108 to 105, in full Target Center, in Minneapolis. During the press conference, the shooting guard took responsibility for his team's 'lack of energy'. Furthermore, he commented on the accumulated fatigue against the Denver Nuggets and how it can disrupt the sequence of games.

“We didn't start well. We went out slowly today and only then did we find our energy. Then we become apathetic again. So I guess it was our fault. Everything was our fault today. I didn't go that far. We were probably a little tired.”said Edwards.

“We were just a little tired, probably.”

“I was a step behind everyone else. There was a moment when Kyrie made a transition layup. We had scored and he just overtook me. I'm out of rhythm. But we'll be fine. We didn't play our best basketball today, from 1 to 15. I think Jaden was the only one who was ready to play today. And everyone else let him down. We'll see how Game 2 goes if we bring our best basketball to Friday. Everyone at their best level and we’ll see how it goes”added the star.
