What happened: Anthony Edwards led the Minnesota Timberwolves to a Game 4 win at home, evening their playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs at 2-2. 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: After dropping the series opener, Minnesota has clawed back to even footing against a Spurs team led by Victor Wembanyama. Game 5 becomes a swing game with home-court advantage on the line, and the winner takes a 3-2 series lead into a potential closeout opportunity. The narrative around Edwards continues to build, with his Game 4 outing earning attention beyond the box score.

What to watch: Game 5 in San Antonio will determine which team takes a commanding 3-2 series lead. Watch for Wembanyama's response after his Game 4 ejection and whether Edwards can sustain his form on the road.
