On May 18, the NBA playoffs continued. In the Western Conference semi-finals that ended in the current group, the Timberwolves eliminated the Warriors 4-1 to advance to the Western Conference Finals. Timberwolves star Edwards updated social media to celebrate his reaching the Western Conference Finals, and their opponents will be the winners of the Thunder and Nuggets.
Edwards performed very well throughout the second round. He averaged 38.8 minutes per game, scored 26.2 points, 7.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.2 blocks, shooting percentage of 47.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 44.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 69.2%. Edwards posted the stadium photos of this series and wrote: "I haven't done anything yet, keep cheering!" So far in his career, Edwards has used less than 40 playoff games to break through 1,000 points, becoming the third player in history to do this, the previous two were James and Durant. In the total playoff score ranking before the age of 24, Edwards is temporarily ranked 6th, second only to Kobe, Parker, James, Durant and Tatum.
As Edwards' performance became more and more outstanding, he has also been recognized by many celebrities. Paul Pierce praised Edwards in the show: "Edwards is now a top 5 player in the league. I took out Doncic because I think Edwards has no problem with physical condition and defense. He can coexist with anyone on the offensive end. There are rumors that the Mavericks contacted the Timberwolves before contacting the Lakers. They wanted Edwards, but were rejected."
Heat celebrity Wade even bluntly said that he saw his own shadow in Edwards. He said: "I like to see myself in players of different eras, just like Rose looked at Morant. He felt that Morant had some shadow of himself. I look at Edwards now, and I think he had some shadow of mine. We all have the idea of this, which kind of player we would be if we played in this era."
