In this story:

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards raised the bar in the NBA dunk of the year debate. The 22-year-old guard threw down one of the most vicious poster dunks in recent memory over Utah Jazz forward John Collins during the third quarter of Monday night’s matchup.

Edwards went straight at Collins, taking off from just inside the free-throw line before emphatically finishing a dunk so powerful that he appeared to hurt his finger. The dunk sent the commentators and fanbase into a complete frenzy.

The dunk also appeared to injure Collins, who ultimately left the game with a head contusion, as The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported.

If that didn’t do the dunk enough justice, here’s another angle worth watching of Edwards’s incredible finish.

Not surprisingly, the dunk sent social media into a frenzy, as fans couldn’t believe Edwards’ powerful finish.
