"So smooth and freakishly powerful". Perfect description. Crazy athleticism, quick handles and can make his own shot. I'm sold.

Who’s watching this during 2024 Playoffs🙌🏽 Dominating the Game

Looking at this again. You were so on point. This is the best analysis I’ve seen recently especially giving how Ant Man is playing this summer.

Put him on the grizzlies and that teams diff

4:06 Victor Oladipo went #2 behind Anthony Bennett, not #1. I’m assuming that’s what he meant

Who is here after he got drafted 1st overall?

He’s a dawg on 2k

He got potential

They compared him to everybody but Beal

This wonderful man Anthony Edwards has changed the Timberwolves in the most transcendent manner!

We love him in Minnesota

Welcome to the minnesota timberwolves!

As a t-wolves fan, I really like his game. Lack of effort on defense is concerning when MN already has D'lo and KAT on the team but I hope he will improve defensively since he has strong physical tools. Bringing Rubio back was a good decision. He helped Donovan Mitchell and Devin Booker with his playmaking ability. I believe Edeards will improve his shooting percentage bcause he doesnt have to carry the offense in MN since they have three good scorers in D'lo, KAT and Beasley. Cant wait to watch him play in NBA

Him being 6'5 225 pounds is impressive, having a 40+ inch vert is even more impressive, being able to create his own shot on the dribble and having great footwork and body control is really impressive but if he REALLY does have a 7-foot wingspan that makes him a freak! To be honest he's probably the best SG prospect to come out of college since Michael Jordan in terms of his ceiling. All of his flaws are easy fixes with the right coach and system. Like Kobe, he's not taking bad shots because he can't make them, he's doing it because the game comes too easy for him and he gets bored with the mundane BUT he def needs to stop taking those ridiculous long two's and 3's so early in the shot clock or he's going to be riding the bench during his rookie season. I'd def draft him ahead of Melo.

I see a bigger Victor Oladipo in the making

Two theories: The worst thing he does are pull-up 3s in transition. They are incredibly popular, but he's not a good enough shooter, and he's "so tough" to stop going to the rim, it's a waste. I'd be interested to see what getting rid of that would do for his efficiency, both by raising his 3-point percentage and giving him more shots in the paint. Pull-ups in the half-court or step-backs are fine, but stop pulling up at the top of the arch when you are basically 1-on-1 on a fastbreak. The other: he's really athletic, but he needs to sloooow waaaaay doooown. I'm glad you made the Harden comp. He's another people say isn't athletic because he plays so deliberately. But he's actually athletic. I also see some of Luka Doncic's game in him. Just like Allen Iverson stretched the carry rule to its extreme and dared refs to call it on his crossover, does Doncic (and Harden) with traveling. Edwards is so big and can take such long-steps. No one is going to bump him off his route to the lane. Step-backs, hesis, euro-steps, in-and-outs, these are all marks of a slower, more deliberate approach. Being big and strong (he's already the size of Doncic and Kawhi and bigger than Harden), he can just keep defenders on his hip. (Jimmy Butler is another). Butler, Harden, Luka all have vastly different games, as does Edwards. But they all play "slow" in a good way, and they use their strength to their advantage. I'd be interested to see what Edwards could do in that manner rather than relying on his explosiveness and speed to make everything work.

he’s him

he bout to be with the hawks

This is my first time seeing this guys highlights but what I do know I have his Opal card on 2k20 and he’s a beast! So if he’s as good as his card he to will be a beast!

I think we forget this kid is 18,in my opinion he has a high floor and high ceiling if he cleans up the pnr reads,catch and shoot shooting,motor on both ends(especially defensive) and a higher consistent fg percentage.

Back here when wolves swept KD and the Suns in the first round. Man they drafted a MJ 2.0 who can shoot 3s.

My favorite NBA player

What do you think of Edward's odds of being successful being coached in a strict offense. Is he destined to do better with his second coach than with his draft team?

Special!!!!!!

He's the truth

Didn't they say this about almost every other #1 pick before

Go Dawgs!!

Which team needs him the most? Or where would you like him to get drafted? I hope the Pistons gets him..

KAT, DLO, and Anthony Edwards 🔥🤩

DLo will love this guy

My favorite player

Like the way Smitz said Donovan MITCHELL uses violent crossovers lol.

Wow. Kid is goooooood

Dynamic backcourt duo with DLo

Next up!

#1 draft pick !

One of the best finishers in college basketball. Look forward to seeing him in the league.

ESPN get your audio quality in check

That block at 3:35 was nasty

I hope he goes to the Hawks him Trae and John Collins. 👀

Man this dude is so smooth. I think he has the highest super star potential. Minnesota better take this guy.

What's that lil beat in the beginning

Move RJ to the 3 & draft Edwards Knicks!

This guy gonna be a god

Scoring beast on 2K (from a download draft)

Reminds me of Dion Waiters. Take it however. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Definitely has mad game, but is he ready to face the NBA talent especially the elite players? Let's be wait for the season to start and see!

Do one for lamelo BBBall😌

He’s nba ready.

Best player in the draft.

Ok so a Victor Oladipo/ Mitch Richmond type. He could be a threat long term. Could land 1st.

Don’t sleep on Cole Anthony as well.. he was playing hurt all year. Him and Anthony Edwards would be beat players in the draft

This aged well

@4:04 Victor was the Number 2 Pick not Number 1 pick

Welcome to Dub Nation!,

Trae and Edwards are gonna be the new splash bro’s of the 2020s

If he develops a consistent jumper along with a 3 point shot then he’s a all star

Anthony Edwards is the best player in this year's draft. Minnesota Timberwolves better get him.

Can the NBA just start a loan system? Where teams can loan out their young players so they gain experience on certain teams

Reminds me of dwade

Yeah I need Edwards on the cavs with porter and sexton we be nice in 2 years

He’s good, but in my opinion James Wiseman is my best pick when i went to a Memphis game Anthony Edwards only scored ten points

I see a right handed harden with maybe slightly more athleticism, but not as good as a shooter.. harden developed his handle to what it is and I believe Edwards can do that also.. hopefully Minnesota pick him #1 but couldn’t blame them for getting Lamelo as well

im all set ..lol he said dion waiters haha i cant unhear that dont drive him #1

Go dawgs

This nba draft is gonna be all about fit so I’m a big advocate for him to be drafted to Detroit 🙌🏿🙌🏿

welcome to minnesota man)

He will ripen so well in the NBA, but I think letting him sit on the bench as a rookie would develop him into a better player, because It would make him think twice when taking a shot.

He’s got warriors written all over him.. PG: Curry SG: Edwards SF: Thompson PF: Draymond C: Drummond (Wiggins, Timberwolves & Warriors first round pick). 🙌🏼 we can all hope..

Comparing him to victor or Donovan is perfect comparison in my eyes.!

Put him with a good point guard he will be great

No one will ever catch Michael but this dude will get the closest watch this space he is very special

OFF THE BENCH WITH THE WARRIORS!!

4:26 pause

I like his size and strength at the position but those shooting percentages worry me

Warrior's

That title is over exaggerated to the max!!!

Good God please don’t let this man fall to the warriors... just imagine him & Klay on each wing with KAT at the 5 & Wiggins playing a power 4 position & Steph running point...

Better scorer>Edwards Most talented player>Ball Seems like a trae vs Luka debate again

my god espn fix your mic

Stanley Johnson or Jaylen Brown?

He going to the Warriors

First NBA pay check and he will be motivated.

He’s mike

Dion Waiters is a perfect comparison. I see a lot of Harden comparisons but he was efficient both shooting and off the dribble at AZ state, something Edwards is not. It’s very hard to coach chucking the ball out of a player so his upside is being someone who can score off the bench. Also, he can’t defend, at all for his size which is going to set him back even further from other players in the draft. Both Ball and Okoro are better picks and provide higher upside than Edwards.

Tbh his shooting and passing is a bit suspect. Harden isn’t just off dribble and create, he’s also good at reading offense and making correct last second plays. This is where LaMelo is much better. I think Wolves needs shooting thou, so they should pick up Edwards and try to move him for Booker. Warriors pick up Ball or Wiseman if Giannis play is available, if not Wiseman might be the perfect pick for them. Hornet got no choice, so...

Go Minessota

He shoots like 20% from the field lmao what are you talking about

Best player in the draft easily, best scorer, highest ceiling and had potential to be a great defender. Stop hyping up melo

I hope lakers get him, and lakers should trade, Howard, cousins, Mcgee, Green, KCP, and Morris. Nothing can beat lakers.

You’ll get less drama out of him then the other two top picks in Wiseman and ball

He needs dwane casey and dwane Casey needs him

soo....is he minnesota's #1 pick? or Booker for a trade package including their #1 pick?

Will be a decent starter.i dont see him flourishing with the wolves. He decent tho. I aint drafting him 1 tho

Minnesota already have Malik Beasley makes no sense if they draft Edwards because they both have similar game

they should just make the scouting reports like they did for lamelo

Imagine him on the grizzlies

Hawks definitely need him

Don't think he'll be a perfect fit with the warriors

Edwards, Booker back court 😤
