Ayo Dosunmu and Jonathan Kuminga are carrying the Timberwolves without Anthony Edwards, who is out after knee surgery, as Minnesota starts 8-3 with four straight wins.

Anthony Edwards had surgery on his right knee on October 29 and the team has given no timeline for his return. Before the surgery, Bleacher Report reported he could miss around two months.

Tim Connelly traded Rob Dillingham, a 2024 first-round pick, Leonard Miller and four second-round picks to the Chicago Bulls for Dosunmu at the February 5 deadline, then signed him to a 5-year, $112 million contract.

Bleacher Report's Zach Buckley put that deal on its list of the five worst overpays of free agency. Dosunmu makes $19.3 million this season, less than the $33 million Julius Randle salary Minnesota sent to Brooklyn, and he is averaging 18.1 points a game, with 23.8 over his last five games.

Kuminga, the former Warriors number seven pick, turned down a Lakers sign-and-trade after the Hawks declined his $24.3 million option. He then signed a two-year deal with Minnesota worth $12.4 million with only $6 million guaranteed, and the second year is a player option.

He is averaging 12.3 points and 5.4 rebounds, and opponents shoot 38.3% when he is the closest defender, according to Stat Defender. Next up are the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday and the Chicago Bulls on Saturday.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have won 4 straight games without Anthony Edwards, and Rudy Gobert has them at the top of the NBA in defensive rating.

Anthony Edwards is out up to two months after a procedure on his right knee, but the Wolves are 5-2 without him and allow 105.1 points per 100 possessions, the best defensive rating in the NBA. We break down wins over the Bucks, Rockets, Pelicans and Jazz, and how Gobert's push on rebounding has made Minnesota one of the best rebounding teams in the league.

It is not just Gobert. Jonathan Kuminga, Ayo Dosunmu, Jaden McDaniels, Jaylen Clark and LaMelo Ball are all defending at a high level, and Chris Finch has noticed. The catch: Minnesota won by 17 points a game in the four games Edwards played and by 7.7 in the seven he has missed. Donte DiVincenzo is out with an Achilles injury. We look at what this defense looks like when Edwards comes back.

Who has been the Wolves' best defender without Ant? Tell us in the comments.

This is HUGE For The Timberwolves…The Minnesota Timberwolves made some BIG moves this offseason, and so far, nearly every one of them appears to be paying off. But one move might stand above the rest: Jonathan Kuminga.

Minnesota landed Kuminga on a two-year, $12.4 million deal late in the offseason, and what initially looked like a bargain is quickly turning into one of the smartest moves the Timberwolves made.

Plus, I give you my keys to victory for tonight's Minnesota Timberwolves vs. New Orleans Pelicans NBA Cup Matchup.
