“C Hines, my trainer, told me to black out tonight, so I tried to do that,” Edwards said.
“I know people gonna love this. He sent me MJ videos every day about blacking out. I think MJ said something like, ‘Why would I worry about a miss if I haven’t took the shot yet?’ So, he be sending stuff like that, I appreciate him.”
The Timberwolves will hope Edwards can continue to channel his inner Michael Jordan once playoff time comes. If he can, Minnesota could become a real threat to win the Western Conference and possibly the NBA title.
