Anthony Edwards has been playing up to his superstar status for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He totaled 90 points over two wins on back-to-back days with the Timberwolves missing two key contributors and searching for a mid-winter spark.

Anthony Edwards had 49 points Wednesday night as the Timberwolves beat the Bulls, just missing his third career 50-point game. Edwards told reporters after the game he won't be participating in the NBA All-Star 3-Point Contest.

Edwards scored more than 40 points for the second straight night, finding an energy boost from Houston's chippy, chirpy ways.
