At one point, in the midst of the Minnesota Timberwolves lopsided season, Anthony Edwards didnt hold back in expressing his immense frustrations.

Earlier this month, Anthony Edwards made headlines when he dropped a major statement regarding his offensive responsibility for the Minnesota Timberwolves in the wake of his co-star Karl-Anthony Towns exit.

The superstar guard, out of the teams overall struggles, set the record straight that hes been exhausted from facing constant double-teams by opposing teams.

It immediately drew mixed reaction and criticism from fans and pundits in which Gilbert Arenas dismissed his claim .

Fed up about these schemes and hardships, Edwards was heavily determined to look for urgent answers.

And apparently, it landed him towards an unforeseen event by approaching an intriguing one none other than Michael Jordan.
