Anthony Edwards used a new YouTube video to show his playoff buildup, posting a behind-the-scenes look at recovery work, meals, weight-room sessions and shooting drills from Minneapolis on April 17. (youtube.com) The video was live Friday on Edwards’ channel, which listed about 182,000 subscribers and showed the segment drawing more than 1,200 views within its first half-hour. The description says the episode covers his “recovery routine, nutrition program, training regimen, and shooting drills” before the postseason. (youtube.com) The timing lines up with Minnesota’s first-round series against Denver. The National Basketball Association’s playoff bracket lists the Timberwolves as the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference and the Nuggets as the No. 3 seed, with Game 1 set for April 18. (nba.com) Edwards enters that series after another high-volume scoring season. ESPN’s player page lists him at 28.8 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game in the 2025-26 regular season. (espn.com) Minnesota reached the playoffs for a fifth straight year on April 7, when the Timberwolves clinched with a win over Indiana. The league’s series preview says the club finished 49-33 before drawing Denver in the opening round. (nba.com, nba.com) The matchup gives Edwards another postseason meeting with a familiar opponent. The Associated Press reported Friday that Minnesota and Denver are facing each other for the third time in four postseasons. (apnews.com) The league’s preview says Denver won the regular-season series 3-1. That puts extra focus on Edwards, who has become Minnesota’s primary shot creator and late-game scorer during this run of playoff appearances. (nba.com) The video itself stays tight on individual preparation rather than team strategy. Edwards frames the postseason as a routine to manage — body work, food, lifting and repetition — one day before Minnesota opens another series with Denver. (youtube.com, nba.com)
