How does it feel right now nationally televised game you’re clearly the star attraction it’s been that way throughout the season everybody’s talking about you what’s this season been like for you um it’s been fun man uh I don’t I wouldn’t say that I’m the star of Attraction but
Um I would say my team is as a team we doing it together and um FY doing a great job of putting us in the right spots how good are you feeling about this team compared to what you saw last season um I felt I felt like this last
Season but we got hurt you know what I mean so I feel like long as we stay healthy we we trouble team to play so give me an idea if you didn’t get hurt if you didn’t feel like you were 100% if you had been 100% what would y’all have
Done last year against the now reigning defending Champion Denver Nuggets I mean to be honest I’m a competitor so I can’t say what we would have did because I don’t know we lost to them they wouldn’t won a championship so shout out to them but we we trying to see him this year
For sure when you look at this team this year is it about getting yourself set to compete against the Champions or or do you look at the entire Western Conference and say to yourself as presly built we can take anybody yeah for sure yeah we taking it piece by piece storm
By storm we ain’t looking at the championship right now we looking at these last 27 and then we’ll figure out the playoffs after that as you look at your game what has gotten you to this level you’re averaging over 26 a game you’re the number one option Carl
Anthony Town comes on TV this morning and says he had to come to you and tell you you’re the best player on the team he talked about yeah I mean that our relationship is is like kind of like best friends man um he came to me one
Game and was like look we coming to you at the end of the game and you know that’s that’s you can’t teach that man that’s wanting to see somebody else shine I think that’s that’s our entire team LeBron James was on the record saying that when you look to the Future
The guys that are ready to take the man to the kind of young Bloods that we’re going to look at he brought up your name he brought up Shay gilis Alexander your thoughts about that I think that’s dope cuz um I think he exactly right me and
Shay and Luca for sure right you you said you and who luk all right yeah how do you feel you guys how do you feel you specifically measure up against those two uh I feel like I’m a better player 100% what defin success for the Minnesota Timberwolves this season would
Y’all be in the number one seed right now in position to have homecourt Advantage with the expectations now Brewing what’s what’s defined success for you guys this season our defense if we come out and and you know pick up the intensity on defense from the jump I
Think can’t nobody mess with us cuz we got big Rudy Gober at Durant man he been he been you know dominating this year and what can the basketball World expect from Anthony Edwards this season going into the postseason and for the future figuring out who is is um showing the
World that you know I can compete at a high level and they need to put us on TV more last question I said this on the record when I think about you and I see what I’m seeing from you I think Vince Carter I think Kobe I think MJ he’s
Coming he’s on his way there MH you hear something like that how does that make you feel I go get in the gym cuz I got to I got to fulfill what he said right so you got to fulfill what I said yeah

SGA is a beast tho
I would say that SGA is more polished
Some of y’all make no sense in the comments, what y’all want him to say “Luka and Shai better than him” 😂
He's smoking that good sh!t.
He is not anywhere near Luka.
He’s supposed to say that! But deep inside he knows he’s not seeing Luka! Maybe SGA but Luka? Heavens no
There is mindset, and there is straight up delusion. Dude always puts up 8 points every 2 weeks, and he is better than MVP candidate players? Based on everything he has shown this season, he is in a class lower than them.
Stephen A. hates all things Minnesota. To see him dragged there kicking and screaming is rather funny.
Anthony edwards is not on the level of SGA or Luka, hes great but not nearly there yet
Ant is the guy. Next face of the league.
Sorry but Ant just doesn't have the skill or the numbers to warrant any of this, he's only hyped up cause he's American and black. Luka on the other hand will be the GOAT when it's all said and done
Everybody in the hallway just tryin to act like they ain't trippin that Stephen A. walking down the hallway.
Anthony is not on MJ or on Kobe level.. he’s good but y’all be blowing me with these dumb azz opinions
Dam it sucks we lost tonight, but we good. We just gotta clean up them second half mistakes.
28 points on 27 shots……..
F both these clowns!! Ant overrated
A better player than Luka you have to be outta your mind I like the confidence but individually there is no better player than Luka in the Nba right now and that’s FACTS!! Dude is a walking triple double.. only one close is jokic!
Haja Haja
SGA yes! But Luka is on another level
Love this man. Come to Miami Ant lol fr
Not better than Luka
Lmao they want this dude to be the face so bad. I love how obvious SAS bias against euro players is becoming
Love Ant, love everything about. But he ain’t on the same planet as Luka. He’s way closer to SGA level impact than Luka. Luka on another level
giving off Ja Morant vibes
Anthony Edwards the Face of the NBA
Why did stephen A tried to dismiss luka AGAIN! TWICE in one day on ESPN! Smh !!
SAS’S hairline is a distraction 😂
ESPN went from pushing Ja Morant to Ant now..
Meanwhile everyone no ones neither is nowhere close to the international’s
Not with his left hand…
Vorp:
Sga 5.7
Luka 5.4
Edwards 2.7
Luka is literally double as good as edwards. I understand being confident but don’t be an idiot.
Boys all sides tough 🔥
Watching SAS right now disgusts me for his anti Luka BS…FOH dude
Stephen a smith is a xenophobic racist .
Pressure got to him. He was terrible in the game except last 1 min of the 4th.
Stephen A ask questions so seriously 😅 and Ant laidback with answers..
Haha that’s dope. Great interview
Not Luka, but SGA definitely
SAS is a racist POS.. he has always try to bring Luka down… go back to his pre draft analysis of Luka
Yall are so wack the new face of the league is going to be Angel Reese. 💀 prove me wrong
This year's version of "I'm fine in the west"😂 ?
Dope interview💪🏿🔥
They want this kid to be the face so bad, but he just does not have the it factor. Additionally, he is interested in sharing the spotlight, not taking it.
Stephen a suits always on point 👌
This guy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Clowns here mentioning shai on the same level as Luka where luka smoked his okc by 41😂😂😂😂
