Anthony Edwards Calls Out Officials After Wolves Beat Thunder

[ad_1]

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards wasn’t in a celebratory mood after his team picked up a big victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Instead, Edwards focused his displeasure on the officials.

“Imma take the fine, because the refs did not give us no calls tonight,” Edwards said during an on-court postgame interview with the Wolves local broadcast. “Cheatin’ ass refs.”

In the locker room, Edwards hadn’t let it go.

“The refs was bad tonight. Yeah, they was terrible,” Edwards told ESPN without prompting. “We was playing 8-on-5.”

Edwards made it clear he wasn’t upset with the calls that Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander got throughout the game. Instead, the Wolves star was upset with a lack of calls when he felt he was fouled.

“I haven’t earned [referees’ respect] yet, so it’s OK,” Edwards said. “But I think tonight was bad from the refs. It was terrible. We didn’t get no calls as a team. I got fouled multiple times, and I’m walking up to the ref telling him, ‘Hey, can you watch this?’ They just shaking their head. Yeah. And then soon somebody come down from their team and get bumped, it’s a foul.

“So, I just feel like it wasn’t a fair game tonight from the jump. And so, that’s why I’m super happy we won the game.”
