Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards isn't judging his Game 4 performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder solely on his box score.

"I don't look at it like I struggled," Edwards said after the Timberwolves lost 128-126 on Monday night to trail 3-1 in the Eastern Conference finals.

"They had a good game plan, making us get off the ball. Especially for me, they was super in the gaps. I made the right play all night, so I don't really look at it like I struggled. I didn't get enough shots to say I struggled. ... I didn't struggle at all. I made the right play."

Edwards recorded 16 points - his second-lowest output this postseason - along with four rebounds, six assists, and five turnovers in Game 4. He shot 5-of-13 from the field and 1-of-7 from three.

"You don't want to take bad shots and get your team out of rhythm. Just playing the game the right way, man, and that's what we did tonight as a team," Edwards added.

T-Wolves forward Julius Randle also struggled Monday, tallying five points on 1-of-7 shooting and seven rebounds.

"I think it was just lot of me just spectating," Randle said postgame, per The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski. "I've gotta figure out a way to get myself involved in actions."

Monday marked the second time Edward took only 13 shots in the series. The first came in OKC's blowout loss in Game 1, after which he admitted he "definitely" needed to shoot more if the T-Wolves wanted to upset the top-ranked Thunder.

Edwards and Randle combined for 54 points in Minnesota's lone playoff victory over the Thunder in Game 3.

The Timberwolves will attempt to stave off elimination in Game 5 on the road Wednesday night.
