Anthony Edwards, the star player of the Minnesota Timberwolves, has become increasingly popular among fans due to his remarkable skills. However, his bold statements have also contributed to his popularity. During the offseason, Edwards made a controversial statement about a legend, which resulted in heavy criticism.

As the new preseason started, Edwards engaged in more trash-talking on the court. During the recent game between the Timberwolves and the New York Knicks, Mikal Bridges attempted a free throw. The Knicks star missed the free throw, and Edwards took the opportunity to taunt him. According to a recent post by LegendZ on X (formerly Twitter), the Timberwolves star used some explicit language while trolling Bridges.

“That n**** done changed his shot, man…. Damn!” Edwards said.

In addition to engaging in playful banter, Edwards amazed everyone with his exceptional performance on the court. The Ant-Man scored 31 points, provided three assists, and secured two rebounds in just 27 minutes of playtime.

During the offseason, the Knicks acquired Karl-Anthony Towns and Miles Bridges. The recent game between the Timberwolves and the Knicks has attracted a lot of attention from fans due to the Knicks’ acquisition of new players. This is especially significant because Towns was a former Timberwolves player and Edwards’ teammate, and they are playing against each other for the first time.

At the end of the game, fans witnessed a heartfelt moment when Edwards and Towns swapped their jerseys and sneakers. While everyone in the crowd was pleased after watching that moment, Edwards hinted about his future. Fans called on the Ant-Man to consider shifting to the Knicks once his current contract with the Wolves expires. In response, Edwards said, “I would love to be reunited,” leaving everyone stunned.

Edwards’ subtle hint sparked excitement and anticipation among basketball fans. The carefully chosen words in his statement have the potential to catch the interest of NBA analysts. It will be intriguing to see their reactions in the coming days.
