Minnesota ultimately fell 139-109, officially ending its postseason run, while San Antonio advanced to the Western Conference Finals to face the Oklahoma City Thunder.<\/p>

The decision by Anthony Edwards quickly went viral, but many NBA fans were not pleased with the move, believing he should have waited until the final buzzer to congratulate the San Antonio Spurs regardless of the score.<\/p>

\u201cWhat in the world\u2026 you don’t do that. It\u2019s disrespectful to the teammates who are still out there fighting and playing out the game. Lost some respect for Ant after this,\u201d one fan said.<\/p>

Another added, \u201cNahhh I\u2019m just not cool with this one. I like Ant Man but not this move. I understand what he was thinking but wait until the end of the game.\u201d<\/p>

The Timberwolves have now reached the playoffs in each season since 2023 with Edwards leading the way.<\/p>
