10 Things You Didn’t Know About Anthony Edwards

Anthony Edwards took the NBA by storm Edwards oh Edwards Edwards gets it back threw it down but he’s more than a record setting basketball player who’s already being compared to Michael Jordan he like a young 84 Jordan Anthony eats the worst diet of any athlete ever probably eat like three a day is that 21 bags probably more though and he’s got a car that literally kills people those and a lot of other insane things of what you’re going to learn about but first first Anthony’s Secret rap career hasn’t beefing with NBA legends yeah yeah yeah yeah I’m coming yo I’m coming I’m coming I’m telling you right now I’m coming they must have been mad that Anthony can really spit I walk in theall and I spend all my money and you know I get it the next day and I’m never last I’m in first place and I just beat the like and you know know I my shot like and him rapping on one of little baby’s beats ain’t even a surprise cuz they grew up together gr up in Atlanta uh pretty dope liil baby and I grew up not too far from each other they grew up on Spark Street I grew up on lck Wood Street so but not only did little baby influence Anthony to start teasing his own [Music] songs [Music] gas we I don’t like fans I don’t take no pict impressing rappers eventually had Anthony change his name to king ant and drop music say they love me you got to show me I got 24es just call Mee and they won’t flow put them in the noed once I blow now all right having bars like that already had fans claiming that he was a top three rapper of any NBA player so not only did that get Anthony extra cocky during an interview when a reporter brought up how he’s a rapper they also asked Anthony if he thought he was like Damen Lillard but even though that’s kind of High Praise sings As Damian AKA Dame dala is considered the greatest NBA rapper of all time Anthony actually clowned the comparison saying damn and his songs I don’t even know what he’s talking about I’m rapping like little baby I really can rap now clowning like that was crazy so that’s why one of Dame’s most legendary teammates even threw some shade he said D like Can’t Rap basically he’s better we going jumping but even a rap battle with Dame wouldn’t be as crazy as the car Anthony drove to a game that almost killed everybody the cars in Anthony’s collection have always been crazy I mean he’s had Lambos that were black and blue he got another one to match the color way of his shoe and he even got a lamb that looked like it came out the movie Tron but none of those cars were controversial like his newest purchase cuz man’s pulled up to a game in a hype Beast mobile I mean Tesla cyber truck not only did Anthony become one of the first NBA players to get one it was the most trending vehicle in the world at the time which wasn’t a good thing thousands of cyber trucks were being recalled because of a scary issue let’s talk about a recall now on thousands of Tesla cyber trucks due to a pedal problem all the trucks accelerators were broken meaning they could randomly speed up on their own and crash so cuz the truck could kill people at any moment Anthony was criticized by fans all over ax and even the creatures I in Reddit had things to say about Anthony’s truck but speaking of creatures what if I told you that Anthony’s best friend isn’t a human see when our world got taken over by a pandemic Anthony was a little lonely and that’s why he wanted a new pet lion but that was a little too dangerous I love like dolls or like lions or something but I knew I couldn’t get no Lions cuz I ain’t got the house for it he kind of he grew he grew on me you named your dog Anthony Edwards Jr which is just a great love the confidence it’s awesome you literally talk to your dog on Instagram he helps you train what’s going on here he’s the best dog in world man I was somebody had just asked me like what is my dog doing right now I said he watching himself man he know how to cheed himself he know how to let outside he know how to do everything so my most important thing in my life besides basketball is my dog my favorite person in the world look at him just want to be around me man I I love him now all right if you couldn’t tell he was Anthony’s best friend yet it was about to get obvious when they play basketball together ready to shoot hm you ready Anthony would post them everywhere he got a custom painting of his boy wearing a t-wolves jersey they were both featured on bobbleheads and Anthony Jr even got his own social media account with more followers than me but regardless I think Anthony eventually got bored of having only one best friend cuz eventually he got more dogs than I can count now I just hope they don’t eat what Anthony does cuz dude has the worst diet of any pro alete ever o i can eat these during the interview and that’s something he even admitted himself he said what he eats every day it’s the worst diet for a basketball player I mean Anthony’s always putting crazy things in his mouth Chester hot fries the best chips that I ever made I’ve been eating them since I was probably like 5 years old I prefer these over any chips in the world probably eat like three a day you do the math cuz that 21 bags yeah I eat that many probably more though but even though hot fries are good and I love deep throating them too Anthony’s unhealthy diet got crazier when he brought fast food to an interview you have Popeyes a yeah man I had to get Popeyes after the game where did Popeye’s fries rank fries they top four popey started taking over his life after that he’d walk around in their merch was always talking about his favorite sauce I be the barbecue sauce for sure that’s my favorite sauce on everything I eat and he eventually even started playing basketball with their food yo joh check this [Music] out let’s run that [Music] back now that’s a 50 it’s your turn Anthony’s a Munch but not the kind ice spice likes cuz not only does dude even do interviews in restaurants oh I can eat these during the interview his sweet tooth made a bunch of his teammates talk about his junk food addiction this man opens this backpack in his full of snacks like just every candy and snack you could think of we was driving back he’s like yo cat I ain’t going to lie man I need some cookies man he goes man I I can’t do it without some insomnia cookies tonight he like oh yeah these going to be good boy Bo say let me get cookies and cream ice cream I said are you fing serious right now but after Anthony eats all of that of course he washes it down with some Sprite and I can’t argue with the results I mean it be having them dunk like this same Jam new style points and it’s also helped him set such crazy NBA records that they’ll never be broken the first of his four unbreakable records got set during a game against the Nuggets all night long this man was hitting three Edwards was open and an after three straight away he connects after three floor Edwards another triple and it seemed like he couldn’t miss side of the B Joshua Ki are you playing jayen Noel Chris Finch talks about wanting to play the flow for Edwards an will take it on the glass with eight rebounds Edwards adds to his total a looking for even more he’s not satisfied beat Denver and do we have 10 we do have 10 that last shot from damn near half court not only helped him secure the win it was his 10th three of the game and made him the youngest player in NBA history to hit that many but Anthony’s second unbreakable record is something that not even Steph Curry could do rewinding a few years Anthony’s been on Pace to set a record since his first game in the NBA during his debut the first shot he ever made was a three and that Trend continued throughout the first three years of his career where this man hit more threes than I do Edwards Edwards deep three are fourth in the NBA mid-range field goal and side steps for there’s no doubt about it Anthony Edwards that one’s going to have to make a play little step back from deep but Edwards stays with it and got a three eventually though Anthony came into a matchup with a total of 496 threes made in his career and he was looking to become both the youngest and fastest NBA player ever to hit 500 in a game where he knocked down not one not two cash but three of them going to fire from three bottom history was about to be made swing it to Edwards for three good again so that shot not only made Edwards the youngest player ever to hit 500 threes he also became the quickest player to ever hit that Milestone only taking him 189 games but this next record Anthony set is something that cemented him as a legend the record was previously held by arguably the best player in Timberwolves history Kevin Garnett this was a man who carried his team to the playoffs but not only that he carried the load no did he by becoming a point guy he scored 30 points in seven different playoff games which set a franchise record that seemed Untouchable until Anthony became a star and eventually got into the playoffs for the first time he was destined for something legendary and in just his third playoff series ever mans hit this shot to give him 30 points and it also tied kg in the history books obviously that wasn’t good enough so of course Anthony was about to go off again this time he went off way more than he needed to until he got a game ceiling dunk and there’s a reason he was flashing 40 to the bench cuz that Not only was his 40th point he set the record for most 30-point playoff games in franchise history beating kg’s record in over 30 fewer games he like a young 84 Jordan boy you hear me you’re going too far listen Lord you not watching I know he not watching the game Bo you watching I said 84 now speaking of Playoffs records and scoring hella points Anthony wanted to shock the world with one final record kind of cuz eventually he was matching up with the defending champ Denver Nuggets and many people were counting him out so not only did Anthony want to use the first game to make a huge statement he was cooking them so much leaning spinning shot sticks It Rock it down look at this right to the wck that he eventually ended the game with 43 points 43 once again he set a Timberwolves record this time for the most points scored during a playoff game in team history and the craziest part was his record didn’t even stay for long just a few games later he went even crazier and dropped 44 points breaking his own record it’s a three damn this man is a basketball God but what if I told you he plans on leaving the NBA for another job now I’m not talking about him working as a cashier like me uh your total is 6969 sir Anthony wants to stay in sports cuz he’s confident he could go pro in any of them I used to play baseball when I was young yeah it be hot how good a baseball player were you I could have went to the MLB MLB yeah I am not surprised I’m I’m serious though you think I’m joking I’m serious no I just I love your confidence what positions did you play I play pitcher Short Stop third base and center field those are the prime positions that that what I’m trying to tell you yeah you were the best player on your team is that now we talking you could hit the ball buty I was four fifth hitter you know what that mean clean up yeah straight clean up on aisle three come come get it sounds like you’re just an athlete yeah okay pingpong baseball football basketball tennis swimming lacr whatever you need me to play I’m going to go do it if it’s some money on the line I’m going to go do it can you golf whatever you need me to do hockey whatever on the on the ring whatever you need me to do it don’t matter but out of every sport he mentioned he’s always been the best at football I played football basketball and baseball until probably like 14 I thought I was going to be in the NFL and then I started getting better at basketball Anthony knew he had a chance at making the NFL when he was not only bigger than every kid on the field this man was a star quarterback and played as the running back where he’d score multiple touchdowns every game now even though Anthony eventually got Bor of dominating on the field and switched to killing kids on the coure his love for football followed him all the way into the NBA where nowadays he warms up for games with football drills and sometimes even shows off that he should become the next quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings oh y y Nick Nick that don’t worry about don’t worry about it oh my God but it wasn’t just the NFL goat Tom Brady who saw Anthony throw and thought hm maybe he should switch Sports not only do I already know that Justin Jefferson would like that Anthony Edwards what stands out to you most out of this player man he’s crazy he’s crazy athletic crazy ability to make a move and and hit a step back jumper so I’m excited to see what he got today Anthony actually is planning to become the first NBA player ever to go join the NFL would you still feel like you can go play football yeah is it a basketball player that switched and did both I think I might be the f one you going to do it I’m try first I got to handle my business in the NBA what all you got to do tell us I just want to as a team Minnesota organization we want to win a championship and after that we’ll figure you know that means you got pass the ball I passed the ball you scored 33 points one time that was in a half I mean I just got hot when you hot you you keep going you pass it all right now that seems like all fun in games but Anthony might not have a choice he might actually get kicked out of the NBA cuz he’s already been in so many controversies that it’s racked up over $100,000 in fins Anthony’s first Scandal happened with a post on Instagram look at these ass man were the word I’m came to and calling people slurs like that definitely ain’t going to fly in the world today so that not only had fans upset the NBA saw and since they have a strict rule against players using offensive and derogatory langu on social media Anthony was forced to apologize and spanked with a $440,000 fine but what cost even more was his next controversial incident now I ain’t talking about when he subscribed to hoop flick that’s free and since Anthony’s a fan why the hell aren’t you subscribe anyways Anthony’s more expensive fine came at the end of a playoff game when he was on the brink of being eliminated with only a few seconds left and his Squad down by only three points this happened cley looking for Edwards finally gets it to him Edwards launches no and Denver survives and they have punched their ticket to the Western semis but that Miss loss and season ending for Anthony wasn’t even the worst part the situation turned into a police investigation see when Anthony was running to the locker room he was seen swinging a metal chair and that chair hit two innocent Stadium employees injuring them soce police cited Edwards for assault and afterwards the NBA released a statement saying that for recklessly swinging a chair in frustration that struck two bystanders this time Anthony was fine $50,000 but that fine combined with his other is only 90,000 and according to my calculations we were supposed to get over 100k what took it there came during an intense battle between Anthony and another top team in the west not only were things instantly getting physical throughout the game Anthony didn’t feel like he was getting any calls Edwards driving and finishing needed to get stops throughout the course of this second half they’ve been able to find him Edwards drives and Anthony Edwards down the lane and elevates for that huge but complaining to the refs that clearly wasn’t Al so Anthony just helped carry his Squad to a win and after the game he put those refs on blast seven points but contributions all around a team effort in the Aunt tonight it was the battle amongst the best in the west you guys take sole position of number one in the west how did you get it done in this environment I don’t know I don’t know and I’m going to take the F cuz the refs did not give us no calls tonight we had to play through every bump every grab I don’t know I don’t know how we won tonight uh big shout out to my team big shout out to my coaches for sure uh yeah mans knew he was getting fine for that cuz tons of players in the past got consequences for repeatedly publicly criticizing the officiating so right after Anthony was also fined 40K which means in total fines Anthony’s lost $130,000 all that cash gone in stupid ways but I bet you didn’t know that Anthony also spends his money in embarrassing ways jewelry is something that Anthony’s became addicted to buying after all the man’s worth over $250 million so he can afford whatever the hell PC wants so famous Jewelers definitely noticed and they were Beyond impressed with his collection Anthony Edwards is actually wearing one of these you probably seen this same chain in the soccer World the NBA world the football World Anthony Edwards here is wearing two of the ones that I made for him it’s a color chain gold comes in rose gold white gold yellow gold so you really can’t go out and uh have as many options when you’re doing that but when you start looking at colored stones and sapphires you can play with your fits more but none of those pieces or this compared to Anthony’s favorite chain next up my A5 chain the biggest chain that I got my favorite chain I think it draws all the attention in the world probably too much attention but I love the chain I I like jury I like chains rappers like to wear all the chains all the watches two watches bracelets this is my logo so I wear it when I’m you know having fun with my friends pretty much that’s the only time I wear it to the game tunel style definitely got to wear this and listen mans was not capping either he’s always flexing this chain during games interviews even while he’s shopping for other things but during an interview is ironically where Edwards revealed an embarrassing secret about his jewelry the little one is like some bull for real it really was fake it just looked good fake n it was fake that’s a fake chain you wearing so you was wearing a fake chain in this picture yeah people going to think it real anyway cuz it’s me so you be wearing fake hell yeah I spend all that money on on that on that J that AE chain you got is fake no that real I ain’t going cap that one real so what’s the what other fake items do you own both of them change fake both of them them earrings you got on right now fake AJ look good but regardless of his jewelry is fake at least his plays on the court are real cuz he’s pulled off some of the craziest dunks in NBA history I just like dunking off people man well but then the legs will catch up a little bit Anthony Edwards major elevation and the foul Ant-Man Flex on him Young fella fun game here in the Twin Cities look at the moves by Edwards swash p and slamming Anthony Edwards laser pass McDaniels no oh goodness climbs the ladder to the rim escalator style Anthony Edwards break opportunity for the wolves and Reed gives it up here’s Edwards down the lane the hammer Look Out Below I’m up here High fing fans up in a sweep that was unbelievable a lot of opportunities for cat to expand his offensive game with that three-point shot especially in transition and Edwards the explosion to the rim who’s in O from this Little Caesar’s Arena crowd do they need to be defensively Edwards oh my on his head oh my God and don’t get me wrong all of those were definitely crazy but those don’t even compare to his best dunks ever there was a time that he embarrassed the legend in the playoffs tend to shoot Edwards oh Edwards a signature slam Skywalker Anthony Edwards He’s at another level there were also dunks where he damn near jumped over grown ass man ant off the feet and Anthony Edwards showed that an can kill wow nobody in this building can believe it was ridiculous Anthony just absolutely destroyed gate Vincent on that [Applause] play they were lucky that wasn’t turned over Anthony Edwards that time he does finish with the excal Mission Point what ofby got his Felix hurt on this one I mean that is absolutely filthy but his Mona Lisa of dunks was so crazy it nearly put himself in the hospital and only had one shot attempt in that first half another turnover for Utah Edwards gets it back and threw it down and one from the Raptors [Music] ah oh my God didn’t even react cuz I dislocated my finger you see it on your left on your left hand too I couldn’t react to it I wish I could have reacted to it I wish I could have now all right man injuring himself for a highlight is insane why does this man go so hard oh yeah it’s all cuz of the number five that he wears on his jersey and it turns out the secret behind why he chose it it’s cuz multiple people died the tragedy that happened to Anthony is actually only part of the reason number five is so important to him it’s followed him everywhere like in 2001 when he was born on April 5th but that wasn’t going to be the only fifth day of a month that became significant to him cuz even though his mommy vet raised him and was supporting him in sports as his biggest fan low League football games those are the best she would be running up and down the sidelines with me every time I score a touchdown yeah number one fan yeah for sure as perfect as things were everything was about to change in 2015 Anthony’s mom was diagnosed with cancer and now not long after she was rushed to the hospital suddenly her breathing started to slow down and on the fifth day of the month she passed away and if that wasn’t hard enough Anthony’s grandma wasn’t doing well either she was also suffering from cancer where her health also kept getting worse and as time went on just a few months after Anthony’s mom’s tragedy on the fifth day of a new month now his grandma passed away 2015 I lost uh my mom and my grandma it wasn’t easy so I just kept playing basketball like me and my brother told each other we weren’t going to stop playing basketball because of it cuz we know that if they were still here they would want us to keep playing so I just Channel all my energy towards basketball stop worrying about everything else how how tough a time was that for you especially being so young trying to understand this all Los my mom was real tough and my grandma she was like our backbone she was like no matter what happens in life just smile cuz you able to wake up and see the next day that’s why every time people see me I’m I always got to smile on my face nobody what’s going on now as tragic as everything was those fifth days weren’t something Anthony wanted to forget so from that point on he wore number five on his jersey so they could always be on the court with him from dominating in high school while wearing it all the way in the college where he kept rocking it eventually the number five fieled Edwards enough to eventually be considered one of the top picks in the NBA draft and on the big day Anthony waited to hear his name get called while he sat next to portraits of his mom and grandma the first pick in the 2020 NBA draft the Minnesota Timberwolves select Anthony Edwards from the University of Georgia Anthony Edwards with his mother and grandmother with him there in spirit now when Anthony’s Dream came true of making the NBA you already know what number he wanted with a teammate already wearing number five Anthony was temporarily forced to choose a new number wearing the number one definitely didn’t stop from becoming a star but Anthony always wanted to wear his favorite number instead so after aural was painted in his hometown honoring him his mom and his grandma it was time for him to make a change we’re here because uh I want to tell the Wolves fans that I’m uh switching from number one to number five this year finally got the chance so you know making a change I was hoping uh my teammate uh Malik Beasley would let me but uh you know he a want to come up off of it so I had to choose one I’ve always been five um high school college even before high school aou I just always love the number FES and my family love love to see me in that number so I mean it’s a it’s a dope number to be in uh a lot of big big days on the 5th my birthday my sister’s birthday my grandma passed on the 5th so I mean just big big days big days uh it’s going to look good with Edwards on the back uh we’re going to put on the show this year man number five all my new fans all my old fans go get the five Jersey but out of everything Anthony went through none of it as crazy as this NBA player who survived a nuclear explosion as you can see there’s insane things you never knew about yogic he’s also got addictions a zesty nickname he don’t want the world knowing about and a secret ritual he does with his wife before every game this video right here that you can click right now it’s crazier than anything we talked about Anthony so get the hell out of here and click it
