I don’t need the ball,” Anthony Edwards said, via Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic. “You see it. I’m having fun, man. It’s fun to play with Donte.”</p><p>In 27 minutes, DiVincenzo put up 15 points, making two three-point shots and shooting 6-for-11 overall during the game, at some points jawing with his former teammates and coaching staff on the Knicks during and after the contest. Anthony Edwards did what we are accustomed to seeing him do, as he put up 31 in the game. The Knicks won the game 115-110, but the starting players who played <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-nsfw-trash-talk-mikal-bridges">for the Timberwolves</a> performed well for the most part. DiVincenzo seems like a seamless fit with Edwards in that offense, and his shooting should take pressure off of the superstar.</p><p>Due to the financial situation, the Timberwolves were in and the state of the ownership group, many knew that it was a matter of time until the franchise offloaded one of the big contracts. Towns was the obvious move, and the Knicks, who needed a center, were the obvious fit. In addition to DiVincenzo, the Timberwolves got Julius Randle on what is potentially an expiring deal due to a player option he will likely decline, and a protected first-round pick form the Detroit Pistons. Towns was a staple of the organization, but the Timberwolves hope that this trade balances out the roster more.</p><h2><b>Timberwolves wrapping up preseason before big tests early on in regular season</b></h2><p>The Timberwolves have two more games in the preseason coming this week, one against the Chicago Bulls on the road on Wednesday, followed by a home game against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday. Julius Randle will be able to get on the court on Wednesday against the Bulls. That will be his first game back from the shoulder injury he suffered last season.</p><p>It will be interesting to see how Randle and DiVincenzo mesh with Edwards and players like Rudy Gobert this season. The Timberwolves will be tested early on, with the season opener on Nov. 22 against the Los Angeles Lakers on the road, followed by another road game on Thursday, Nov. 24 against the Sacramento Kings.</p><p>Regardless, it appears Edwards is high on what he and DiVincenzo could do on the court together.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

There’s no doubt that during the season, there will be more moments of Edwards talking trash to other players around the league.</p><h2>Anthony Edwards is becoming one of NBA’s best trash-talkers</h2><p>Anthony Edwards was most recently seen talking trash on Netflix’s Starting 5. During one of the segments, the Timberwolves had just beaten the Boston Celtics in overtime, and Edwards did his best on trying to contain Jayson Tatum.</p><p>After the game, the cameras heard him talking about Tatum and his status in the league.</p><p>“You seen Tatum trying to get me on the switch, locked his a– up 2 times,” Edwards said. “He started talking s—. Tatum was talking crazy, saying, ‘Yeah, I’m here,’ then I said, ‘I’m coming again.’ Talking ‘bout best player in the league, y’all trippin’.”</p><p>Edwards was also seen talking trash to Kevin Durant in the playoffs last season, and there have been many more moments where the Timberwolves star has gotten the best of his opponents. Nobody gets a pass with Edwards, not even the older generation of NBA players. A few months ago, he was asked how he thought <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-claims-michael-jordan-was-only-older-generation-player-with-skill">basketball is different now compared</a> to back in the day</p><p>“I didn’t watch it back in the day so I can’t speak on it,” Edwards said. “They say it was tougher back then than it is now, but I don’t think anybody had skill back then. [Michael Jordan] was the only one that really had skill, you know what I mean? So that’s why when they saw Kobe [Bryant], they were like, ‘Oh, my God.’ But now everybody has skill.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In Edward’s latest take, he talked about Michael Jordan and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-kobe-bryant-leadership-making-people-feel-uncomfortable">Kobe Bryant’s leadership style</a>. In an interview with Interview Magazine, Chris Tucker asked Edwards how he <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ClutchPoints/posts/pfbid0k9Ha8bskxLgrGU4V6Bo56GUTD2xSapz54nzV62gMqCWyP6n2Kp6dUNYkopQfp28l" rel="noopener">felt about their styles</a> of gathering their teams together.</p><p>“I can agree to disagree, because in today’s game everybody’s different,” Edwards said. “You can’t talk to everybody the same. You got to talk to players differently. Certain players can take it. I talk to some of my teammates like, ‘Hey, get your shit together.’ But some players, you got to go talk to them on the side. You can’t really cuss them out in front of everybody.”</p><p>Edwards is not the first player to say that, and he probably won’t be the last. Granted, Jordan and Bryant won a lot of championships with that leadership style, but who’s to say that all the players on the team were receptive to it?</p><p>This is not the first time that Edwards has offered his opinion on basketball back in the day, and it will be interesting to see if anybody calls him out about these comments.</p><h2>Anthony Edwards takes jab at older generation of NBA</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Anthony-Edwards.jpg"><figcaption>Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>A few months ago, Anthony Edwards was asked how he thought <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-claims-michael-jordan-was-only-older-generation-player-with-skill">basketball is different now compared</a> to back in the day.</p><p>“I didn’t watch it back in the day so I can’t speak on it,” Edwards said. “They say it was tougher back then than it is now, but I don’t think anybody had skill back then. [Michael Jordan] was the only one that really had skill, you know what I mean? So that’s why when they saw Kobe [Bryant], they were like, ‘Oh, my God.’ But now everybody has skill.”</p><p>Those comments didn’t sit well with a lot of players who used to be in the NBA, most notably <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-magic-johnson-fires-back-at-anthony-edwards-ignorant-skill-take">Magic Johnson, who had quite the response</a> for Edwards.</p><p>“I don’t never respond to a guy that’s never won a championship,” Johnson said in an interview with Stephen A. Smith. “There’s not nothing to really say,” Johnson said. “He didn’t win a college championship. I don’t know if he even won a high school championship.”</p><p>Isiah Thomas also <a href="https://x.com/IsiahThomas/status/1825925652341518656" rel="noopener">didn’t agree</a> with Edwards’ statements, replying on X, formerly Twitter, with “Propaganda works, so be careful what you choose to believe.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This matchup between the Timberwolves and Knicks did not have the feel of a typical preseason game, with both teams seemingly going at it as if there were high stakes on the line.</p><p>In the end, it was the Knicks that came out on top, 115-110, surviving an all-out barrage from Edwards, who led the way for the Timberwolves with 31 points on red-hot shooting from the field. Following the exciting preseason contest, Edwards and Towns became the talk of the town as they decided to hold a jersey swap — an incredible, if bittersweet, moment between two former teammates whose friendship has grown over the past four seasons.</p><p>But Knicks fans, ever the opportunists, took this opportunity to recruit Edwards to New York. One fan straight up told Edwards to sign with the Knicks once his contract with the Timberwolves (that runs until the 2028-29 season) is up. Edwards did not shut the door, however, on a potential reunion with his old buddy Towns. In fact, he said that he would <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBF5hLPJ20r/?igsh=NjdtNTA5d242MzEw" rel="noopener">very much welcome</a> a potential reunion with the 28-year-old big man.</p><p>“I definitely would love to be reunited with KAT,” Edwards said, <a href="https://x.com/ClutchPoints/status/1845681209994576259" rel="noopener">eliciting a smile</a> from Towns.

One of the subjects of the new <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwovles-news-anthony-edwards-blasts-jayson-tatum-netflix-show-yall-trippin">Netflix show, ‘Starting 5,’ Anthony Edwards showed he’s a top trash talker</a> as well.</p><p>So it probably comes as no surprise that Edwards would drop another big take during the show. The former No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft spoke about where he <a href="https://x.com/ClutchPoints/status/1844866409471586770" rel="noopener">currently is in his development</a> and what could be coming in his future trajectory.</p><p>“When you’re in your prime, you’re like 26. The s**t that I’m doing, I’m doing this s**t at 22,” Edwards said. “Imagine when I’m 25, 26 and the s**t is perfect, everything perfected. If I could fast forward my next season to the playoffs right now, I would. Come back better and work a little harder. So let’s go for a full ride, buckle the f**k up.”</p><p>Anthony Edwards was one of five NBA players that were selected as the focus for ‘Starting 5.’ The other four players were LeBron James, Domantas Sabonis, Jayson Tatum and Jimmy Butler.</p><h2><b>Anthony Edwards’ ascent with the Timberwolves<br></b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Devin-Booker-and-Anthony-Edwards-mark-the-No.-1-and-2-spots-as-best-shooting-guards.jpg"><figcaption>© Brad Rempel-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Following this past season, it’s pretty much a certainty that Anthony Edwards is the best shooting guard in the NBA. There are some who believe <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-karl-anthony-towns-drops-anthony-edwards-take">Edwards has what it takes to become the face of the NBA</a> as well.</p><p>Since Edwards arrived in Minnesota, the Wolves have made the playoffs in three of his four seasons. After missing the playoffs his rookie year, the Wolves were ousted in the first round in consecutive seasons before advancing to the Western Conference Finals last season. It was the first time since 2004 that the Timberwolves had reached that mark.</p><p>Coming into the 2024-25 season, Edwards is seeking his third consecutive All-Star appearance. He made the All-Star team in 2022-23 as an injury replacement, but last year he was selected outright.</p><p>He appeared in 79 games for the Wolves last season at a little over 35 minutes per game. He averaged 25.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.3 steals with splits of 46.1 percent shooting from the field, 35.7 percent shooting from the three-point line and 83.6 percent shooting from the free-throw line. His points, assists, field goal percentage and free-throw percentage were all career-highs.</p><p>The Timberwolves were expected to be contenders this season in the Western Conference, but it will be interesting to see what they look like following the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-julius-randle-inching-closer-debut-after-karl-anthony-towns-trade">Karl-Anthony Towns trade that brought them Julius Randle</a> in return from the New York Knicks.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Ant was eventually able to make USA Today’s All-USA first team as well as both the McDonald’s All-American Game and Jordan Brand Classic.</p><p>Edwards was ranked as a top-five prospect by various media outfits going into college. Eventually, he chose to go to the University of Georgia. Edwards had a stellar season with the Bulldogs, putting up 19.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game. His athleticism, scoring, and playmaking ability cemented his status as a top pick in the 2020 NBA Draft.</p><h2>Anthony Edwards’ first NBA contract</h2><p>Indeed, Ant was selected first overall by the Minnesota Timberwolves. His rookie deal was a four-year $44.27 million contract. Edwards did not start well in the league, with issues of consistency and efficiency in his scoring, as well as a notable lack of defense.</p><p>However, his fortunes would soon change as he became more accustomed to the league. Ant had a 42-point bomb in an unlikely win against the mighty Phoenix Suns, as well as another 42 in a loss against the Memphis Grizzlies. His performance during the second half of the season was so good that he firmly thrust himself into the Rookie of the Year conversation.</p><p>While LaMelo Ball went on to win the award, Edwards still made a great account of himself after a rough patch to start his career. He ended the season with averages of 19.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.9 assists.</p><p>There was not much team success at first for Ant’s Timberwolves, as they languished in the 13th spot of the Western Conference. Nevertheless, Edwards looked to improve on his rookie season, both individually and to help the team. The Timberwolves looked equipped to do so as well, with a promising roster and a weakened Western Conference.</p><h2>Anthony Edwards has a breakout season</h2><p>Edwards came to life in his sophomore season. There was no rough patch to start the season this time, as he and the Timberwolves threatened to stay in the top half of the West. Not even a month into the season, Ant managed to put up a new career-high 48 points against the Golden State Warriors. He wasn’t done there, however.</p><p>He eclipsed this in a win against the San Antonio Spurs late in the 2021-22 season, putting up 49 points, six boards, and eight dimes. Along the way, he also became the youngest player to put up 10 triples in a single game in a 38-point performance against the Denver Nuggets.</p><p>Ant established himself as one of the league’s most athletic and versatile scorers in 2021-22. He ended the campaign with improved stats of 21.3 points, 4.8 rebounds. and 3.4 assists per game.</p><p>More importantly, he was the team’s second-best player in a season in which they entered the NBA Playoffs for just the second time in 18 years. The Timberwolves finished as the seventh seed in the regular season and won a play-in tournament game against the Los Angeles Clippers to maintain their seeding.</p><p>In his third season, Edwards set career highs in per-game averages of 24.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 4.4 assists as well as career bests in field-goal percentage (45.9) and 3-point percentage (36.9). The Wolves again reached the playoffs through a play-in victory but lost in the first round in five games to the eventual NBA champion Denver Nuggets.</p><h2><b>Anthony Edwards signs max contract extension</b></h2><p>Prior to the 2023-24 season, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-5-year-260-million-contract-extension">Timberwolves signed Edwards</a> to a five-year, $260 million contract extension. It will keep Edwards in Minnesota through the 2028-29 season despite many outsiders speculating that Edwards would be seeking to play in a bigger and/or warmer market.</p><p>Anthony Edwards was a big reason for Minnesota being the third seed in the loaded Western Conference in the NBA during the 2023-24 season. He averaged 25.9 points, 5.1 assists, and 5.4 rebounds and made his second All-Star game.</p><p>However, Edwards and the Wolves made even more noise in the 2024 NBA Playoffs as they swept Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns in the first round and won the first two games on the road in their second-round series against 2023-24 NBA MVP Nikola Jokic and the defending champion Denver Nuggets.</p><p>The Nuggets rallied in the series and forced Game 7. They even took a 20-point third-quarter lead in Game 7, but the Wolves came roaring back and knocked off the defending champs on their home floor.</p><p>The magic ended there for the Wolves as they fell in five games in the Western Conference Finals to Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks.</p><p>Following the season, Edwards played for Team USA in the Olympics and started every game as the Americans brought home the gold medal.</p><h2>Anthony Edwards endorsements</h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">FIRST LOOK at Anthony Edwards' first signature shoe with adidas.

Edwards is one of the top rising stars in the NBA today. He is an All-Rookie First Team player, an All-NBA Second Team selection and a two-time NBA All-Star. Edwards is also the face of the Minnesota Timberwolves franchise, especially after the team recently traded away Karl-Anthony Towns.</p><p>Just recently at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Edwards was one of the key players that helped Team USA bring home the Olympic gold medal. Edwards is also a huge fan favorite in the NBA not only for his performances on the court but also for his expressive personality off the court.</p><p>As a result, it’s easy to see why a handful of NBA fans considered him to be the next big thing in the NBA. In fact, Edwards has even managed to draw some Michael Jordan comparisons thanks to his elite level of play.</p><p>Given Edwards’ impact in the NBA, have you ever wondered what kind of cars an NBA superstar like him drives? Well, wonder no more. Here’s a look at Anthony Edwards’ incredible $332K car collection, with photos.</p><p>According to online outlets, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/anthony-edwards-net-worth">Edwards has a net worth</a> of around $40 million. Aside from lucrative paychecks in the NBA, the Minnesota Timberwolves star also earns from his endorsement deals, primarily with adidas.</p><p>This should allow the two-time NBA All-Star to live a lavish lifestyle. This includes purchasing some of the hottest rides in the market to fill up his garage, as per <a href="https://www.sportskeeda.com/basketball/anthony-edwards-net-worth" rel="noopener">sources</a>.</p><h2><b>2.

For this modern-day beauty on wheels, the Olympic gold medalist probably shelled out at least $81,895, based on online <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/tesla/cybertruck" rel="noopener">sources</a>.</p><p>While it’s the cheapest car under his name, anyone looking to buy a car would agree that the Tesla Cybertruck isn’t cheap by any means. In fact, it’s probably one of the most advanced vehicles in the market today.</p><p>Edwards was first spotted with the vehicle when he drove it to the Timberwolves’ game in the 2024 NBA Playoffs in Game 1 of their first-round matchup against Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns. Later that night, the Timberwolves took care of business, defeating the Suns 120-95, before dominating the Suns en route to a first-round sweep in favor of Edwards and the Wolves.</p><p>In terms of features, the Tesla Cybertruck easily turns some heads with its unique exterior design that can only be described as futuristic at best. Given that it incorporates advanced tech in the vehicle, this beast on wheels is relatively easy to maneuver.</p><p>Moreover, Edwards should also have no problems going on long road trips with this one. In fact, the Tesla Cybertruck is designed to handle the roughest terrain and conditions, thanks to its offroading capabilities. As the cherry on top, any owner will be amazed by its lavish interior, which is littered with luxurious amenities.</p><p>The Tesla Cybertruck operates on an electric motor, making it an environmentally friendly vehicle, which should allow the All-NBA Second Team player to reduce his carbon footprint. Moreover, this allows this beast on wheels to produce 600 horsepower.</p><h2><b>1. Lamborghini Urus</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2019_lamborghini_urus_1588015238e8f93aad47a19e2aDSC_0965.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2019_lamborghini_urus_15877092548495d565ef6DSC_0929.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2019_lamborghini_urus_158770943665ef66e7dff9f9876DSC_0087.webp"></figure><p>For more photos, click <a href="https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2019-lamborghini-urus-4/" rel="noopener">here</a></p><p>Retailed in the market for as much as $250,000, the most expensive car in Edwards’ car collection is a Lamborghini Urus. The Lamborghini Urus is a high-performance luxurious SUV, making it one of the highlights of the garage of the Minnesota Timberwolves star. It’s safe to say that the two-time NBA All-Star is a huge fan of lavish vehicles.</p><p>The Lamborghini Urus provides the market with a SUV that features super-car qualities. This should allow Edwards and his loved ones to roam around the city with style.</p><p>Furthermore, the Lamborghini Urus is also capable of handling offroad situations, which make it an ideal vehicle for those long road trips that may require passing through some of the most difficult terrain and conditions.</p><p>Furthermore, this top-tier SUV should also provide enough legroom interior-wise while possessing sufficient cargo space. Thanks to its interior, the Lamborghini Urus provides comfort without sacrificing performance. In fact, the Lamborghini Urus is like a super car with the practicalities and benefits of a versatile SUV.</p><p>Powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, the Lamborghini Urus produces 657 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. It relies on an eight-speed automatic transmission to peak at 190 mph. On the other hand, it has no problems with acceleration, capable of moving from 0 to 60 mph in just a little longer than three seconds.</p><p>Nevertheless, this is all the information that we have on Anthony Edwards’ incredible $332K car collection, with photos.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

One of the best <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-news-kevin-durant-respect-admission-anthony-edwards-trash-talk">trash talkers in today’s game is Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards</a>. So it comes as no surprise that in the new Netflix documentary, ‘Starting 5,’ Anthony Edwards is <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10138779-anthony-edwards-dismisses-jayson-tatum-as-nbas-best-in-netflix-doc-yall-trippin" rel="noopener">at the center of trash talk</a> directed towards Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum, as per Doric Sam of Bleacher Report.</p><p>The new Netflix show followed Edwards, Tatum, LeBron James, Domantas Sabonis and Jimmy Butler during the 2023-24 season. This particular incident came during an early regular season game between the Celtics and the Timberwolves with Anthony Edwards throwing shade in Jayson Tatum’s direction after a Wolves win.</p><p>“You see Tatum trying to get me on the switch, locked his ass up two times,” Edwards told his teammates. “Tatum was talking crazy saying, ‘Yeah I’m here,’ then I said, ‘I’m coming again.’ Talking about ‘best player in the league’. . .y’all trippin’.”</p><p>The Timberwolves would defeat the Celtics in that game, 114-109, with Edwards dropping 38 points. Tatum finished the game with 32 points. Edwards is arguably the best shooting guard in the league while Tatum is arguably the best small forward in the league.</p><p>But the Celtics would have the last laugh as they reached the NBA Finals and brought home title No. 18 in franchise history. The Timberwolves did advance to the Western Conference Finals but were beaten by the Dallas Mavericks in five games.</p><p>In the same show, Tatum spoke about the expectations that were placed on the Celtics coming into the 2023-24 season.</p><p>“We were expected to win every single night and when we lose, the f**cking world is ending, everybody’s on TV talking about us, how we’re not equipped to win a championship, how I can’t lead a team,” Tatum said.</p><p>But Tatum did prove that he could lead a team, alongside fellow Celtics star Jaylen Brown who was the MVP of the Finals.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This comes as a surprise, considering Booker had 63% of the votes the year prior.<br><br>Last season, Booker put up <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/bookede01.html" rel="noopener">27.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.9 assists</a> per game. His production on a stacked Suns team resulted in an All-NBA selection for the former Kentucky guard. Although the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-most-to-blame-for-embarrassing-playoff-sweep-at-hands-of-timberwolves">first-round sweep by the Timberwolves</a> didn’t help, it shouldn’t take away from Booker’s production. The Suns were riddled with injuries, as they played the first 23 games of the regular season without all three on the court simultaneously.</p><p>Regardless of the rankings, even Edwards acknowledged <a href="https://www.si.com/nba/suns/news/anthony-edwards-impressed-devin-booker-olympics" rel="noopener">how impressed he was</a> with Booker during the Olympic run. Booker’s ability to play his role to near perfection helped Team USA secure another Gold Medal. Playing tough defense, hitting open threes, and being a momentum shift was what sealed the deal. Although Booker enjoyed himself in Paris, the NBA season resumed almost two months later.</p><h2><b>How do Suns’ Devin Booker and Anthony Edwards match up?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Devin-Booker-and-Anthony-Edwards-mark-the-No.-1-and-2-spots-as-best-shooting-guards.jpg"><figcaption>© Brad Rempel-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Funny enough, Booker had Edwards’s number in the regular season. He has an <a href="https://stathead.com/basketball/vs/devin-booker-vs-anthony-edwards" rel="noopener">11-1 record through 12 games</a>. Also, Booker averages more in every category besides rebounds, steals, and blocks. Edwards is more of a defensive presence than Booker, using his athleticism to beat defenders to spots, and cut off driving lanes. His 6’9 wingspan helps him guard bigger guards and forwards. </p><p>On the flip side, Booker’s defense has progressed year by year. In the Olympics was the first instance of the Suns guard being a true lockdown. While the athletes are different overseas than in the United States, defending at a high level can translate to whoever someone plays. </p><p>Offensively, this is where the two stars differ. Both are excellent scorers but have an interesting way of doing it. Edwards uses his athleticism and ball-handling to get to the rim at ease. He’s also been a solid catch-and-shoot player as well. Furthermore, he averaged 6.4 free throws per game, one more free throw than the previous season. The blend has <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-side-side-anthony-edwards-michael-jordan-dunking-suns-goes-viral">led to viral dunks</a>, among other things.</p><p>For Booker, his offensive game isn’t as flashy as Edwards but is more fundamentally sound. His unique blend of <a href="https://coachnatehartman.com/devin-booker-pick-and-roll-pace/" rel="noopener">utilizing the pick-and-roll</a>, along with the mid-range shot is extremely effective. Booker’s touch with the ball has helped him develop a nice interior presence too. He may not dunk on everyone like Edwards but using both hands and angling shots is just as effective.</p><h2><b>Can Devin Booker overtake Anthony Edwards as the top shooting guard?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Suns-Devin-Booker-dissed-in-favor-of-Anthony-Edwards.jpg"><figcaption>© David Frerker-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>A new system will do wonders for Booker. While Frank Vogel was a solid head coach, he didn’t implement a steady offensive system. As a result, Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal took turns running the floor. It wasn’t bad by any means but it limited the offensive skill sets of all of those players. With the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-news-tyus-jones-agrees-to-3-3-million-contract">Suns signing Tyus Jones</a>, the offense can now run through a traditional point guard. Someone who can let Booker score at will and not have to focus solely on facilitating.</p><p>Because of this, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-news-kevin-durant-identifies-issue-must-address">Suns can limit turnovers</a>, something that they’ve worked on since the start of training camp. Booker should have the ball in his hands but shouldn’t have to create his offense 100% of the time. Having Beal and Durant to play off should help immensely. Even in Phoenix’s first preseason game, there was tons of off-ball movement, and short rolls to the basket by Booker.</p><p>Statistically, it may not be in Booker’s favor as Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns was recently traded to the New York Knicks. It’ll force Edwards to take more of an offensive weight but might dip his percentages. Both teams’ records should be significantly different from the previous season. Minnesota ended as the No. 3 seed while Phoenix fell to the No. 6. seed.</p><p>Beal believed that the Suns <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-news-bradley-beal-bold-1-seed-take-injury-riddled-season">could’ve been the No. 1 seed</a> had injuries not stepped in the way. While it’s uncertain what seed Phoenix could obtain, they certainly seem more promising. The last time Booker had a true point guard was with Chris Paul and they secured the No. 2 and No. 1 seed within Paul’s first two seasons. Booker had some of his most efficient seasons with Paul dictating the offense.</p><p>It’s unknown if Booker will overtake Edwards in the eyes of NBA GMs. If there is an opportunity for that to happen though, it’s this season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Over the last few weeks, we’ve gotten some first-hand looks as to what shape the follow-up silhouette could take heading into the new NBA season.</p><p><i><b>Check our <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sneakers">Sneakers news</a> for more upcoming releases and breaking content!</b></i></p><p>The Adidas AE 1 will continue with its scheduled releases throughout the offseason and given their current popularity, we should see a number of fresh new colorways for Anthony Edwards to rock during the upcoming season for the Timberwolves. However, it’s only a matter of time before Adidas begins rolling out the newest silhouette in the growing line and we wouldn’t be surprised if we saw Edwards “wear test” a few models before Adidas settles on an adequate pair.</p><p>There have been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/anthony-edwards-upcoming-adidas-ae-2-leaked">numerous “leaks”</a> over the last few months as to what the upcoming sneaker may look like, but numerous outlets have now gotten their hands on what looks to be a sample silhouette for what could be the Adidas AE 2.</p><h2>Rumored Adidas AE 2 sample</h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">IN-HAND LOOK: <a href="https://twitter.com/adidas?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@adidas</a> AE 2 sample 👀</p><p>Are you a fan of the direction they’re heading in?</p><p>📹 leo_zd_37 <a href="https://t.co/grwlrhEhQI">pic.twitter.com/grwlrhEhQI</a></p><p>— Sole Retriever (@SoleRetriever) <a href="https://twitter.com/SoleRetriever/status/1840052206738776570?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 28, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">adidas Anthony Edwards 2 Sample Revealed 👀</p><p>LEARN MORE:  <a href="https://t.co/a0Mg5dVCnm">https://t.co/a0Mg5dVCnm</a> <a href="https://t.co/sqgD0OTxej">pic.twitter.com/sqgD0OTxej</a></p><p>— Sneaker Bar Detroit (@SBDetroit) <a href="https://twitter.com/SBDetroit/status/1841497480220786901?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 2, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>The rumored Adidas AE 2 model seems to take another futuristic shape, similar to what made the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/adidas-ae-1-light-purple-coming-soon">Adidas AE 1</a> so popular in the first place. The sample shoe seems to have another underlying “bootie” throughout the upper, creating a form-fitting shape along the wearer’s foot. We also see TPU molding create a sort of exoskeleton for support throughout the upper. The narrow toebox along with the hits of reflective material around it are typical of the previous AE 1, a clear indicator that Adidas is using similar cues to inspire the upcoming AE 2.</p><p>Finer details include a new, neoprene-like material replacing the inner bootie along with crossing patterns throughout, indicating the shoe may come with added support mechanisms. Finally, we see the Edwards “AE” logo on the outsole surrounded by Adidas’ patented herringbone tread. All in all, these may not be as revolutionary as the original model, but it’s certainly a step in the right direction for advancing Edwards’ signature line and bringing something unique to the table.</p><p>While these are just conceptual samples, this could be the best look we’ve gotten thus far as to what the AE 2 could look like. Adidas has done a good job of keeping things under wraps and it’s unlikely we’ll know the final form of the sneakers until they actually come out with a formal announcement. In the meantime, keep it locked with our <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sneakers">Sneakers news</a> for any updates on the upcoming Adidas AE 2.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Edwards quickly made some picks, while others took him more time to decide.</p><h2><b>Anthony Edwards picking the modern-day players over their predecessors</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Timberwolves-Anthony-Edwards-in-the-playoffs.jpg"><figcaption>Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Edwards <a href="https://www.twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1841613696109359303" rel="noopener">shared his thoughts on</a> a series of hypothetical one-on-one matchups between basketball legends. When asked to choose between Chris Paul and Rajon Rondo in their prime, Edwards confidently picked Rondo. For a showdown between Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant, he leaned towards KD. In a more debated matchup, Edwards ultimately chose Luka Doncic over Larry Bird.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">“Who would win 1-on-1 in their prime?… [Chris Paul or Rajon Rondo]?”  </p><p>Anthony Edwards: “Rondo.”  </p><p>“[Carmelo Anthony vs. Kevin Durant].”  </p><p>Edwards: “KD.”  </p><p>“[Luka Doncic vs. Larry Bird].”  </p><p>Edwards: "Luka.”  </p><p>Thoughts? 🤔</p><p> (via <a href="https://twitter.com/HoHighlights?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@HoHighlights</a>)<a href="https://t.co/EL4U99mj5k">pic.twitter.com/EL4U99mj5k</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1841613696109359303?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 2, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>At just 23 years old, Anthony Edwards grew up watching basketball icons like LeBron James and Stephen Curry dominate the 2010s. However, his study of the game extends beyond his era. He has also analyzed the playstyles of legends like Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade, incorporating some of their signature moves into his own repertoire.</p><p>In a one-on-one setting, making solid predictions is tricky, but Anthony Edwards understands the game deeply and recognizes what strategies succeed. Without teammates for support, players must depend entirely on their own intelligence and skill set to generate a clean shot and outmaneuver the defender in isolation.</p><p>The Luka Doncic vs. Larry Bird matchup is likely the most contentious of the hypothetical one-on-ones, but it’s no shock that Edwards leaned toward the more contemporary player. From his perspective, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-claims-michael-jordan-was-only-older-generation-player-with-skill">Edwards infamously said that Michael Jordan</a> was the only player with skill back in the day, while the rest, in his view, didn’t quite measure up to today’s standards.</p><h2><b>The Luka Doncic – Larry Bird debate by the numbers</b></h2><p>Statistically, both Larry Bird and Luka Doncic have demonstrated their ability to impact all facets of the game. Bird posted career averages of 24.3 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 6.3 assists per game, showcasing his all-around prowess. Similarly, Luka’s versatile numbers include 28.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game, proving his effectiveness across the board as well.</p><p>Luka Doncic’s unlimited shooting range and ability to slice through defenses, even at a slower pace compared to other NBA stars, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mavs-news-hes-so-freaking-slow-luka-doncics-apparent-lack-of-speed-draws-larry-bird-level-praise-from-lakers-icon">have drawn frequent comparisons to Larry Bird</a>. Many fans and analysts have highlighted these similarities, noting how Doncic mirrors Bird’s unique style and effectiveness on the court.</p><p>The question appears simple, yet it carries numerous complexities. Larry Bird serves as a blueprint for players like Luka Doncic, who will likely be regarded as all-time greats in the league. Bird’s remarkable skills, despite lacking overt athleticism, distinguish him, and Doncic is reflecting those same traits.</p><p>The Slovenian superstar, is already a consistent All-Star and recently cracked the top-10 list for most triple-doubles in NBA history. This level of success often invites comparisons to Celtics legend Larry Bird. However, the bigger question is how Doncic will adapt as his career progresses, navigating the inevitable challenges that come with different stages of his journey.</p><p>Although these matchups will always be theoretical, it’s fascinating to see how Edwards perceives them. As he enters his fifth season, Edwards seeks to lead the Timberwolves towards the promised land.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Towns has been the face of the franchise for so long, but it has become evident over the past few years that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-anthony-edwards-keeps-it-real-karl-anthony-towns-trade">Anthony Edwards has surpassed him</a> in terms of importance to the team.</p><p>The Timberwolves could not have afforded to pull the trigger on a Towns trade without Edwards’ emergence as one of the best players in the association. Edwards has blossomed into one of the best three-level scorers in the league, and there is plenty of confidence regarding his ability to lead the team to the promised land.</p><p>While Edwards and the Timberwolves’ primary goal is to build upon last year’s trip to the Western Conference Finals, the 23-year-old guard is daring to dream bigger. As tough as the competition might be, he declared that his <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1840990276929610236" rel="noopener">aim is to end</a> the 2024-25 season as the best and most impactful player in the association.</p><p>“Yeah, hell yeah, for sure, no question [that I have the game to be the MVP in the league].

And Minnesota has, indeed, built a championship-caliber roster around him, and it’s up to him now to get a historically-bad franchise over the hump.</p><p>There are a few facets of the game that Edwards has to round out before he becomes a legitimate MVP candidate.

It felt like Edwards and Towns were 1A and 1B for the team in terms of importance, but Towns’ departure means that Edwards is now the team’s undisputed number one option.</p><p>It will be interesting, however, to see how Edwards operates alongside the new-look frontcourt of Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/knicks-news-jalen-brunson-breaks-silence-julius-randle-donte-divincenzo-trade">Randle can hit some threes</a>, but he only shot 31 percent from deep last year, and Gobert is strictly a rim-running screen-setter. Teams can suffocate Edwards’ driving lanes with those two on the court.</p><p>The Timberwolves can alleviate that by bringing in Naz Reid and Donte DiVincenzo, two of the most explosive sharpshooters in the association. This could also allow Edwards to flourish more as a playmaker, given all the capable shooters the Timberwolves can put alongside him.

So that definitely hurt. It’s a business. I just gotta roll with it. They (Randle &amp; DiVincenzo) not here yet, so I’m ready to get to know them.

The Knicks are also sending DaQuan Jeffries and draft compensation to the Charlotte Hornets to round out the deal.</p><h2><b>The Timberwolves’ trade wasn’t a surprise</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Timberwolves-Anthony-Edwards-establishing-position.jpg"><figcaption>Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>In the resulting shockwaves after the trade, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-what-timberwolves-told-karl-anthony-towns-about-a-possible-trade-in-2023">NBA rumors were flying</a> this <a href="https://hoopshype.com/rumor/3190896/" rel="noopener">deal may have been</a> a long time coming, as highlighted by ESPN’s Brian Windhorst on The Hoops Collective.</p><p>“[Timberwolves president of basketball operations] Tim (Connelly) came out to [Karl-Anthony Towns] house [in the summer of 2023] and they had dinner and they sat around and Karl was just like, ‘Hey are you gonna trade me?’ And Tim said a bunch of things. ‘We don’t want to trade you’, ‘we think you’re a great fit here’, ‘we’re building this team around you and Ant’ and all these things, but at the end of the conversation Tim couldn’t say to him ‘I’m not going to trade you,’” Windhorst revealed.</p><p>Minnesota gets a big offensive boost from this trade. DiVincenzo really improved in the last couple of years and showed a scorer’s mentality in clutch moments. He can provide catch-and-shoot three-point shots out of the backcourt. Randle can also create his own shot. Although he tends to hold the ball, he can work defenders to string together moves to get in the paint or use his mid-range game.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
