The fans are definitely keeping an eye on the months ahead now.
The Timberwolves are the seventh seed in the West with a 40-29 record.
So if the play-in tournament started today, the Timberwolves would have to compete in it.
With that being said, their eight wins in a row suggest they could easily get through that and earn a spot in the playoffs.
Edwards has been having another great season, averaging 27.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game on 44.5 percent from the field.
There have been more questions and concerns about his team this season but they are looking primed and ready for what comes next and they could again have a big presence in the playoffs.
How many more 40-point games can Edwards produce this year and how many of them will be in the postseason?
