Dane Moore: Asked Anthony Edwards about not having Karl-Anthony Towns in this matchup and where they would have felt his presence if he did play: “I mean, it would be a lot easier for everyone because he’s gonna get 25 points every night. Like, easy. He walks in the gym with 25 points. So it makes it a lot easier for everybody. And another big body. Another 7-footer. Another shooter. Just fuckin everything. I mean, he can guard Jokic. He’s our best bet when it comes to guarding Jokic. So yeah, we need him.” -via Twitter @DaneMooreNBA / April 11, 2024
