Anthony Edwards

Even plays of the highest tier of difficulty don’t require a breaking of sweat for Anthony Edwards. An unmatchable blend of athleticism and creativity, the budding Minnesota Timberwolves star tests a defender’s agility with three consecutive between-the-leg maneuvers. Shifting him ever-so-slightly out of position, Edwards casually attempts perhaps the play of the 2023-24 season, turning the clock back to 2002 with a pump-fake before opting for a one-man, self-alley-oop slam, sending the hometown crowd into euphoria. This play marked the most talked-about highlight of Edwards’ 28-point performance — a whopping 26 of them coming in the second half — along with five rebounds and five assists, helping Minnesota snag a come-from-behind win over the Memphis Grizzlies on January 18, 2024.
