HOUSTON — Anthony Edwards made a step-back 3-pointer with 23 seconds left to cap a furious rally and lift the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 113-112 win over the Houston Rockets. The Rockets were up by by 12 with about three minutes left before a 10-0 run by the Timberwolves cut the lead to 110-108 with 90 seconds to go. After a Julius Randle dunk and two missed free throws from Sengun, Edwards sunk the 3-pointer to give Minnesota its first lead since midway through the third quarter.
