Anthony Edwards is Starring in His NBA Playoff Leader of The Pack Role

Priceless Anthony Edwards Interview: ANT-MAN Clearly The Leader of The Pack.

If you haven't had a chance to catch a Minnesota Timberwolves playoff game yet, I highly encourage you to go back and watch any of their six playoff games so far. Edwards is clearly leading the Wolves on both sides of the ball, and while the Micheal Jordan comparisons are a stretch, he isn't that far removed from the way Jordan played in the playoffs early in his career.

Comparing the 22-year-old Ant-Man to Jordan, who was 28 when he won his first NBA title, is premature, but watch some of Edwards's playoff games this year and then watch some of Jordan's first couple of playoff runs, and the comparison is certainly there.

Both players have a presence on both sides of the court that is hard to explain. When I watch Edwards, I can't help but think I'm watching a very young Air Jordan trying to figure out how to win in the NBA playoffs.
