Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards has been making waves this season, as the 22-year-old has propelled himself to being one of the top players in the NBA.
Edwards has helped Minnesota reach the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference by averaging 26.3 points on 47% shooting, 5.3 assists, 5.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 52 contests.
Edwards has always had a lot of praise for one player in particular of who he looks up to: Kevin Durant.
In a recent interview with ESPN’s Malika Andrews, Edwards called Durant his “G.O.A.T.”
“My G.O.A.T., this going to sound crazy, but Kevin Durant,” Edwards said. “I’ve always been a fan, just watching him play as a kid. He’s the first 7-footer I’ve seen putting the ball on the floor, scoring off the dribble, so I’ve always been a big fan.”
