“He’s one of the greatest shooting guards to ever play so if I can mimic him…”
Wade is a fan of Edwards and went to Twitter to express his approval of his game and wished him the best of luck.
Anthony Edwards clearly has high expectations for himself looking up to guys like Dwyane Wade. As he continues to develop, he could become the best player on the Minnesota roster in a few years.
