Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards credited two factors for the improved NBA All-Star Game on Sunday: the format’s change and Victor Wembanyama’s charge. Edwards’ MVP performance — 32 points on 13-for-22 shooting with nine rebounds and three assists to edge Kawhi Leonard, who had a strong bid for the award in his home arena — didn’t hurt either. “[Wembanyama] set the tone, and it was definitely competitive with all three teams,” Edwards said. “He set the tone, man. And it woke me up, for sure.”
