Kyle Anderson’s botched game-typing layup in final seconds of Timberwolves' loss leaves fans stunned
Fox News Flash top sports headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com. Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson is going to quickly try to move past how the final seconds played out in the 107-105 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday afternoon.
Point guard Anthony Edwards took the ball up for the Wolves with a chance in the final seconds to at least tie the game and send it to overtime.
The Trail Blazers were quick to double-team Edwards at the top of the key, which forced a quick pass to his right to Jaden McDaniels.
After another Blazers defender closed on McDaniels, he swung the ball to Anderson in the corner, and it looked like he was going to attempt a three-pointer, going for the win instead of the tie.
