Anthony Edwards has built his NBA career on ridiculous athleticism, and this effort was no different.

Edwards' again flexed his strength on Monday night, rising like a colossus over Utah's John Collins to stuff home, perhaps, the dunk of the year.

So imperious was Edwards' dunk, the man himself was even taken aback by his efforts.

Ironically, the rise and shine would leave both players injured, with Edwards dislocated a finger on his left hand while Collins exited the game with a head contusion.

The rising star would finish the 10-point win in Salt Lake City with 32 points in 38 minutes, as well as eight assists and seven boards.

The 2020 #1 NBA draft pick is averaging 26.6 points per game in the 2023-24 season, to go along with 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game.

The Minnesota Timberwolves currently sit in the #2 seed in the NBA's Western Conference with 14 games still to play in the regular season.
