Prior to the 2020 NBA Draft, when asked about his NBA player comparison, one player immediately came to Anthony Edwards’ mind: Dwyane Wade.
The Timberwolves rookie drew high praise from Wade prior to the Draft and continues to earn the legendary shooting guard’s respect 28 games into his first season.
Following a career-high 28-point performance versus the Los Angeles Lakers and Wade’s former teammate LeBron James, the retired star turned NBA analyst shared high hopes for the Wolves’ No. 1 pick.
Edwards’ talents will be on display again on Wednesday night as the Timberwolves return to Target Center for a matchup versus the Indiana Pacers.
