Edwards picked up right where he left off in the regular season averaging 12.8 points per game in 16.3 minutes during the Olympics and 23.5 points per game during the preseason. He is coming off a 31-point outing in Minnesota’s last preseason game shooting 8-13 from three.
Minnesota has two new faces in rookie Rob Dillingham and Donte DiVincenzo, who was acquired in the Karl-Anthony Towns trade, that have played well in the preseason. In three games Dillingham has been fearless, playing 22.0 minutes per game averaging 10.0 points and 4.7 assists per game.
DiVincenzo brings another tough defender and shooter to Minnesota as a starter, off the bench and as a closer. He has found his stroke from three over the last two seasons and is not slowing down with 54-54-100 shooting splits along with 4.0 assists and 4.0 rebounds per game.
