Things got better between Anthony Edwards and Jamal Murray after the Nuggets’ Game 4 win over the Timberwolves on Sunday and Edwards talked about the exchange.
The Nuggets beat the Timberwolves 115-107 for the second time on Minnesota’s home court, despite Edwards’ 44-point effort.
After the game, an exchange between Edwards and Murray was caught on camera as the two crossed the court.

It’s still not 100% clear what was said, but Edwards was seen grabbing Murray when reporters asked him about it.
“I just told his ass, ‘we like that, keep saying that, that’s what we like.’ At least, I like it,” Edwards said after the game. “He didn’t answer anything, but I’m sure he heard me. They heard me. We live for that.”
Ant has been the hero for the Timberwolves in this series, after the Wolves went up 2-0 in the morning.
This was due to Edwards scoring a whopping 33.3 points in four games.
But defending Murray and Nikola Jokic certainly won’t go down without a fight.
After going 3-18 from the field in Game 3, Murray has averaged 21.5 points and gone 19-38 from the field.
While Jokic finished Sunday night’s win with a team-high 35 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. This year’s league MVP averaged 26.8 points in the series v Minnesota.
The Wolves put themselves in danger of dropping a game at home in Minnesota, as the next game will be at home to Denver at the Ball Arena.
However, Minnesota seems to be successful there, as the team won the first two games of the series there.
Denver is looking to become the fifth team in NBA history to win a series after losing 2-0 to start the series at home.
