- Most notably known for his limitless scoring ability and flashy dunks. Edwards is a surprisingly tough defender despite lapses in effort from time to time.
On the ball from the perimeter, he can have even the more potent NBA scorers in front of him yet with his strong core will stay in front and more often than not force a turnover or poke away.
Edwards and McDaniels have the potential to form one of the more formidable duos in the league that can score with ease and have you in hell on the defensive end.

Clutch defender and a Superstar. He is destined for greatness.
Definitely poised for a great career!
He has pieces of other great SG:
MJ's face & post fade away.
KOBE's handle & confidence.
WADE's rim finish & blocks.
T-MAC's pull up 3 & happiness.
MANU's euro step & spin move.
Once he figures out how to play with out the 🏀 (use Naz, KAT, & Rudy for screens) if he could incorporate a little bit of Reggie, Rip Hamilton, Ray Allen, Klay, etc. (The way they curled / pop off of screens) he'll be unstoppable...
Superstar?
@@akbuckets272 He's on his way there.
@@akbuckets272yup
Underrated defender.
When he’s locked in he can be one of the better defenders at the guard position. It just so happens that he also has to carry a heavy load on the offensive end.
Ant & McDaniels looking like MJ & Pippen 👀👀👀
Something special is brewing in Minnesota 📠
Face of the league real soon
Only a matter of time!
@@HowlHighlightsfax
2:50 is insane. He caught it like a football 🤣
After all…he doesn’t really love basketball 😏
Ant is never scared to challenge a dunk. Most players would move out the way.
Man has no fear! 🙏
Wish it were longer. This dude is a superstar two-way player!! We haven't had one of them since KG
Plenty more defensive highlights to come next season 💪 the incentive to make an All NBA Team will bring out his best!
He’s obviously talking about the Timberwolves organization not the entire league
My god, the way he's able to go from a full sprint on a switch and THEN be able to stick to the ballhandler STILL on the catch and drive.. that is just unbelievable body control and athleticism. I mean most times we just see the switch and the ballhandler blows past them to the rim. The fact he can even catch up to them from a dead stop is... impressive.
If he didn’t have such a heavy offensive load I think he’d quite easily push for an all defensive team. Still likely he competes for a selection these next few years 🙏
He has the potential to become the best on ball defender and DPOY but it would be really hard because he has to carry the offensive lead as well.
Excited to see his growth next year.
His defense is Jrue Holiday some of the stuff he did only few people can do that very very impressive and fun to watch someone play suffocating one on one defense.
2:51 football catch
Definitely would have had the potential to be a gun wide receiver.
i'm on the Ant 🐜 wagon now this guy is him
It’s safe to say you aren’t alone on that wagon!
this is mike jordan son ya talkin bout jimmy 😂
Fav player since GA days 🐶
Ant plays above the rim.. offensively and defensively!
ANT can be a better version of DWADE the way he defends... the peak of edwards if he keeps working hard is freaking scary... Can be the best player within 2-3 years time.
The sky is really the limit. Being compared to Wade in itself is a huge compliment. One of the best to do it at his position.
@@HowlHighlightsidk bro Wade was a helluva passer
@@MuckNoyad Wade might have that playmaking edge but Ant is a flat out bucket who will guard your best guy too. And he has that competitive mindset that not to many young players have
@@TutaazActing like wade wasn't a bucket
definitely MJ's son...lol. This dude made me a fan of the game again. I haven't really watched basketball since Kobe retired. I like this kid tho, he going to be one of the greats when its all said and done.
Let’s hope! He’s already well and truely on his way 💪
9:32: The hgh-pitched "cookieeeees!" lmao
The vibes on this Wolves squad is at an all time high!
@@HowlHighlights Bruh, if you look at what they're doing to champs this might actually be Edwards's 06' D. Wade moment.
@@ninjachannel007 I’ve been conditioned over the last 10+ years to expect disappointment. I’m hoping Edwards can take us to the promise land!
Dis what separates him from the rest of the young players
When he is locked in... Edwards is unstoppable.
Nice
And we gonna ne that update 💯
Work in progress 👌 can’t exclude this current Wolves playoff run 🔥
beast
Glad Edwards was baptized in Lake Minnetonka!
Now we just need KG back in the Twin Cities and all will be right in the world!
This reel shows what he has to deal with in teammates
Some comments age poorly 🥸
@@HowlHighlights or does it 🤡
@@HowlHighlights did you delete my reply cause I’m back 😂
If ant get d wade like defense its a wrapp for the league
He’s closer then you might think 🙏
i see alott of anthony edwards in cam whitmore the rockets should see if edwards can work with cam
I actually thought the same watching Cams college highlights. A far less explosive Edwards but I can see the resemblance.
@@HowlHighlights yeah i didnt know how much heavier he was than edwards going into the draft cam 6'7 230 ant was like 6'4 210 my comp was mainly the jumpshot release and the stepback both good defenders but yes ant is much more explosive and the nba is more open and spaced out lets see what cam can do
I think minesota should try and get christian wood.. and trade KAT for Demar Derozan or PG13
It just doesn’t make a lot of sense to go out and get Derozan or PG13 whilst Edwards & McDaniels will be the focal points of the team going forward.
Bringing in Wood whilst KAT or Gobert are still on the team would also push Naz out of the rotation and I wouldn’t imagine Gobert and Wood at the 4 and 5 would fare better then KAT & Gobert.
jordanesque
Antman is going to be a problem!
😂😮😅 hahahahahahahahahaha ez
🏀🔥💪😎
Gobert trade just ridculous you are wasting Ant brilliance I just can't get over that.
Timberwolves could be a real threat if they realistic build around Ant after they made playoffs las year.
What Ant need is a another reliable veteran star who is consistant and can share the offensive load and a bunch of solid vet you can play in the playoffs in my opnion.
I really hope they can trade both Gobert and KAT in this offseason but Gobert contract is imposssible to deal with🥲
not kat rudy i agree only if he doesnt improve this season
Definitely leaving the wolves
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
I need him on my warriors....timberwolves is gonna waste him
You are probably right but Minnesota needs something! McDaniels and Edwards will lead us to the promise land 🙏
@@HowlHighlights Ant and Jaden are great! But we need more defensive and shooting depth, I like Jalen Suggs or Alvarado + Finney-Smith coming off the bench. I think Jose and Ant would mesh so well. Gobert may need to go because as good as he is defensively, we need some balance between offense and defense, offense looked really nice when he and kat were out but at the same time when ant, jaden and gobert are all on the floor we're a top 3 defense. some questions going into next year. also alexander-walker is a beast!
@@HowlHighlights back to back playoffs appearances in 3 years.. yeah okay, that’s a waste for sure
Conditioned for the worst as a Wolves fan 🫠
