On Thursday evening in Los Angeles, Anthony Edwards was on the cusp of creating bettors very joyful.
However his mood received the very best of him.
Within the Timberwolves‘ showdown with the Lakers, Edwards’ Over/Below complete for rebounds was 6.5, and for assists, it was 5.5.
With simply over 5 minutes left within the third quarter, Edwards had already grabbed six boards and dished out 5 assists, which means all he wanted was yet another rebound and yet another help within the last 17 minutes of the sport to assist Over bettors money in.
There ended up being only one small drawback: Edwards would not see these last 17 minutes.
On the 5:21 mark of the third quarter, Edwards acquired a technical after making an attempt to drive to the basket on the Lakers’ Gabe Vincent, who lower Edwards off earlier than he may get there.
Edwards fell, and after not getting a whistle, had it out with the referees.
That third-quarter tech was his second of the sport, which means his evening was over … earlier than he hit his Overs.
