Williamson put on a show, but the Pelicans dropped to a Western Conference-worst 7-30 with a loss to the Timberwolves.

Anthony Edwards highlighted a 32-point performance with seven 3-pointers, and the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the New Orleans Pelicans 104-97 to take some luster off of Zion Williamson’s return from a 27-game absence.

Anthony Edwards finished with 32 points, leading the Wolves past a New Orleans team that got 29 points from Dejounte Murray and 22 points from Zion Williamson.
