Anthony Edwards Drops Career-High 28 Points
Anthony Edwards finished with a career-high 28 points in Tuesday's loss to the Lakers. The forward also added seven rebounds, five assists, two blocks, and one steal in 34 minutes. Edwards has been averaging 14.3 points per game so far in his rookie year, but he's now posted at least 18 points in five of the past six games and his fantasy value is trending upwards. Up next is a matchup on Wednesday against a Pacers defense that is top-10, so Edwards will certainly face more of a challenge.
