The reason why Anthony Edwards refuses to be the face of the NBA
The Timberwolves star asserts that being the face of the league would bring more pressure than necessary
There is no doubt that Anthony Edwards is destined to be one of the best players in the world. The Minnesota Timberwolves star, at just 23 years old, has everything to become the face of the NBA in the long term future.
However, this is not something that particularly catches Anthony Edwards' attention. Recently, he was asked directly if he would like to be that. In statements collected by HoopsHype, these were his words:
"Man, there's a lot of stuff that comes with that. Face of the league, all of that. You know what I'm saying? I try, but my people know that I just want to play ball, go to bed, and get back to playing basketball. I'm not really into all the other stuff, but they want me to get into it," Edwards said.
At the moment, Anthony Edwards leads a Minnesota Timberwolves team that is fighting for a direct playoff spot, ranked 7th in the West with a record of 36-29.
