Anthony Edwards only has one professional game under his belt, but he is already becoming of the NBA’s most interesting personalities.
In an interview on Bleacher Report, that personality was put on full display in a hilarious exchange about being a multi-sport athlete. Check it out:
“Whatever you need me to do, I’m gonna do it, as long as there’s money on the line, I’m gonna do it,” Edwards said, even adding that he can excel in golf, hockey, and even things that aren’t really considered sports such as trash can ball and cooking food.”
This Anthony Edwards interview is straight comedy 😂

From baseball to basketball to ping-pong and even cooking, Edwards is a man of many talents — and he’s not afraid to let the world know it.
Obviously, his biggest focus right now is on basketball. He performed admirably in his debut, putting up 15 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists on 41% shooting.
For the Timberwolves, it’s a positive sign for a franchise that hasn’t been relevant for over a decade now. With D’Angelo Russell, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Edwards, they have a core that can make some real noise in the Western Conference.
