Anthony Edwards has never been short on confidence, but his latest statement has sent shockwaves across the basketball world. After putting on a dominant performance in a closed-door scrimmage where the Minnesota Timberwolves faced off against Team USA, Edwards declared himself the “best player in the world.”

 

The 23-year-old guard, who has steadily ascended into superstardom since being drafted No. 1 overall in 2020, reportedly torched Team USA’s defense throughout the scrimmage. Sources at the workout said Edwards showcased his entire offensive arsenal, scoring with explosive drives, step-back jumpers, and emphatic finishes at the rim.
