"Steph Curry!" Anthony Edwards called Curry as he made the three 🎯😅 (via @NBA)
Minnesota Timberwolves young shooting guard Anthony Edwards believes that he is a better player than the likes of the Dallas Mavericks Luka Doncic and the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
In a video that appeared on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — Edwards can be seen talking to famous NBA broadcaster Stephen A. Smith where he claimed that he believes he is a better player than the other two. “I feel like I am better [than Doncic and Gilgeous-Alexander], 100 percent,” he said.
The claim is an interesting one as numbers suggest otherwise. Edwards has been a star performer for the Timberwolves where he is contributing 26.3 points per game which is the 12th best in the competition. To go with that, he is also contributing 5.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game.
Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 31.1 points per game which is the second-best in the competition. He is also contributing 5.5 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.
Doncic, on the other hand, is leading the charts as he is averaging 34.3 points per game which is the best by any player in the NBA this season. To go with that, he is also contributing 8.8 rebounds and 9.6 assists per game which is the third-best in the competition.
