Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch provided insight into Anthony Edwards' defense on Luka Doni, highlighting the impact of 'illegal screens' set by the Dallas Mavericks. Finch expressed confidence in Edwards' ability to navigate through these screens effectively, emphasizing his performance in the Western Conference Finals.

While illegal screens have been a challenge, the Timberwolves saw improvement in Game 4 with Edwards defending Doni, leading to a more competitive matchup. The defensive strategy shifted from Jaden McDaniels to Edwards guarding Doni, resulting in a notable defensive performance.

Edwards' defensive efforts limited Doni's field goal percentage, showcasing his agility and defensive skills against the formidable Mavericks star. By disrupting Doni's offensive rhythm, Edwards played a crucial role in containing the All-Star guard and impacting the series outcome.
