What happened

Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves evened their playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs at 2-2 with a Game 4 home win, per @espn. The series now shifts back to San Antonio for a pivotal Game 5. Edwards dedicated the performance to his late mother, Yvette, on Mother's Day.

Why it matters

The split flips home-court leverage back to San Antonio but turns the matchup into a best-of-three with Edwards trending up. Game 4 was marked by a Victor Wembanyama ejection that swung momentum, a storyline that will follow the series into Game 5. A win for either side in San Antonio puts the other on elimination watch.
