Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards is entering his fourth year in the league, and it is clear that he is the franchise cornerstone. President of Basketball Operations Tim Connelly signaled as much when he said that any decision the organization makes “moving forward will be with Ant paramount” and other players around the league such as Indiana Pacers guard Bruce Brown saying “Ant is up next” and that “(Ant) was one of the toughest [players in the league] to guard” on the Run Your Race podcast. Current free agent and former Timberwolves reserve Austin Rivers also said that Edwards will be the league’s leading scorer for the upcoming season.
