Minnesota Timberwolves’ star Anthony Edwards is well-known for his confident remarks and exceptional athleticism. His close-knit circle of friends, who have immense faith in his abilities on the court, mirrored this bold attitude.
Recently, Edwards’ friend Nick Maddox showcased this confidence during an interview. When asked who could stop Edwards, the interviewer suggested several prominent players, starting with Nikola Jokic. The friend’s immediate response was a resolute “Hell no.”
Nobody in the world stopping Ant. Believe That.

The interviewer continued to list other notable names, including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Rudy Fernandez, Josh Giddey, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Nicolas Batum. Each time, Edwards’ friend confidently asserted that Anthony Edwards has superior athleticism over all of these players.
Edwards loves to brag about his athleticism. He even declared him the No.1 option of Team USA during a July training camp. “I’m still the No. 1 option. Y’all might look at it differently, but I don’t,” he said.
Anthony Edwards Teams Up with Idol Kevin Durant in Olympic Victory
Team USA men’s basketball kicked off their Paris Olympics opener against Nikola Jokic’s team, Serbia. The star-studded roster, including 12 NBA stars, had a great start, winning their first by defeating Serbia 110-84 on Sunday.
The game led Anthony Edwards to play with his idol Kevin Durant for the first time in the Olympics because Durant missed tune-up games for a calf injury.
Durant had a wonderful game coming from the injury, scoring 21 points in the win. After having a chance to play with his idol, Edwards scored 11 points in 19 minutes coming off the bench.
Team USA men’s basketball will now face South Sudan on July 31 at 3 p.m. ET in the ongoing Paris Olympics. It will be interesting to see how they perform in the upcoming games.
RUMOR: Dak Prescott Predicted To Leave Dallas Cowboys For Record-Setting Contract

Surprisingly, the Dallas Cowboys have yet to extend star quarterback Dak Prescott as the 2024 regular season inches closer.
The 31-year-old Dak Prescott is entering the last season of a four-year contract extension worth $160 million that he signed with Dallas in 2021. Prescott has all the leverage now after seeing fellow quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa (Miami Dolphins) and Jordan Love (Green Bay Packers) sign extensions north of $200 million just last week.
Prescott’s deal with Dallas also contains no-tag and no-trade clauses, so the three-time Pro Bowler can hit free agency next summer if Jerry Jones doesn’t finalize an extension. And if that happens, Prescott will be the biggest name to enter the open market next year.
Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox predicted the future contracts for Prescott and San Francisco 49ers signal-caller Brock Purdy after the Tagovailoa and Love extensions. Knox projects that Prescott will leave Dallas and sign a four-year, $224 million deal in free agency:
“The Dallas Cowboys have botched pretty much every aspect of Prescott’s contract situation throughout this offseason. It began early, when franchise owner and team president Jerry Jones stated that he wanted to see more before handing out extensions to Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons…
If Kirk Cousins, at 35 and coming off a torn Achilles, can get a four-year deal worth $45 million annually in free agency, Prescott can get considerably more. That reality might have Jones coming to grips with the fact that he’ll be looking for a new quarterback in 2025…
It’s starting to feel like a split between Dallas and Prescott is inevitable.”
