Edwards has that extra 'x-factor,' and Jordan agrees
NBA star and owner Michael Jordan acknowledges similarities between his game and Anthony Edwards'
Edwards is a rising star for the Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards is not related to Michael Jordan, and while it’s easy to see why people would think they are, Jordan himself can see the resemblance.
Edwards is a rising star for the Minnesota Timberwolves, and he has been compared to Jordan throughout his young career. The two players share a similar style of play, and they both have a knack for making big plays in big moments. Jordan has even said that he sees some of himself in Edwards.
“He's got that extra 'x-factor,'” Jordan said of Edwards in an interview with The Athletic.
“He's a guy that can make things happen, and he's not afraid to take big shots. He's got a lot of confidence, and he's a winner. I think he's going to be a special player in this league.”
Edwards is still just 21 years old, but he has already shown that he has the potential to be one of the best players in the NBA. He averaged 21.3 points per game last season, and he led the Timberwolves to the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
With his combination of talent, confidence, and work ethic, Edwards has the potential to be a superstar in this league. And if he continues to develop, he could one day be mentioned in the same breath as Michael Jordan.
