Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards has never been one to mince words, no matter the situation.
On Friday, for instance, Edwards nonchalantly told ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith he was better than Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Dončić and Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. At 22, he is part of a generation that eschews traditional media relations norms, matching rising stars in the worlds of music and television.
That applies on the court as well. On Saturday, Edwards argued a foul call with a candor so startling it was easily picked up by in-arena microphones.
