The Timberwolves ultimately fell to the Raptors 86-81, dropping to 7-23 on the year. Edwards finished with 7 points on 21.4 percent shooting from the field and 50 percent from the line. He also had 4 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and a block. Everybody, of course, will remember the game for the posterizing dunk.
