Brian Windhorst's criticism of Anthony Edwards underscores the challenges facing the Minnesota Timberwolves guard after his ejection against the Los Angeles Lakers. With already a league-leading 14 technical fouls, Edwards received two more in that game, bringing his total to 16 for the season and incurring a one-game suspension.

This absence is particularly detrimental as the Timberwolves face the Utah Jazz without three starters. Windhorst emphasizes that while Edwards is a vital asset to the team, his emotional control is crucial. Each subsequent technical foul will lead to further suspensions, complicating Minnesota's postseason aspirations.
