On Saturday evening, the Minnesota Timberwolves played Game 1 of their second-round playoff series against the Denver Nuggets in Colorado.

Anthony Edwards led the Timberwolves to an impressive 106-99 victory to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

After the game, the All-Star guard met with the media, and one of his quotes went viral on social media.

Edwards: "Going against the best player in the world is always fun. Going against the best team in the world is always fun. They're well coached, they're disciplined, they're not going to beat themselves. I felt like our coaching staff did a great job of game-planning throughout the 3-4 days that we had, and our guys came out and competed tonight. It's not just about me personally. It's about my team. They give me confidence also. Third quarter I didn't do anything. I was just out there running up and down. Mike and KAT came out big for us, so that gave me confidence to try to find myself."
