Luka Doncic wasn't having it after Anthony Edwards hit a Spider-Man celebration in his face after hitting a 3 in Game 1 of the Timberwolves-Lakers first-round series. Edwards had Doncic on an island in the fourth quarter and made him pay for giving him a tiny amount of space on the perimeter after a boomerang pass from Naz Reid.

As Doncic jogged down the floor, he stared down Edwards and seemingly nodded at his counterpart.

Edwards had the last laugh as the Timberwolves won 117-95, taking LA by storm in Game 1 at the Crypto.com Arena. Doncic had a solid game with 37 points, eight assists and two steals on 54.5% shooting, but he was a non-factor in the halfcourt as a playmaker with only one assist.

On the other hand, Edwards made it happen for the Timberwolves with a 22-point, nine-assist game, throwing LA off with his unexpected playmaking.
