🤯 Anthony Edwards INSANE POSTER DUNK on Daniel Gafford vs. Mavericks Game 3!!! 🔥
Anthony Edwards threw down an insane poster dunk on Daniel Gafford during 2024 Western Conference Finals Game 3 against the Dallas Mavericks.
Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving scored 33 points apiece, and the Dallas Mavericks made all the big plays late again, beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 116-107 on Sunday night for a 3-0 lead in the Western Conference finals.
The Mavericks closed with a 14-3 run, winning their fifth consecutive playoff game after rookie center Dereck Lively II left with a sprained neck after taking an accidental shot to the back of the head from Karl-Anthony Towns’ knee.
Anthony Edwards had 26 points for the Wolves but just four after scoring eight consecutive points for Minnesota to get the Wolves even in the third quarter.

Kyrie Irving made 12-of-20 overall and 3-of-6 from long range to get the Mavs within a victory of their first trip to the NBA Finals since 2011, when they won the franchise’s only championship.
