<p>It’s not a secret that most scouts believed that <strong>Anthony Edwards</strong> was the only certain thing in this year’s unorthodox draft. The lack of an <strong>NCAA Tourney</strong> and the short season hurt many players’ draft stock, yet he seemed like a can’t-miss kind of talent.</p>
<p>Fast-forward to today and it seems like those scouts were right about him. He hasn’t been the only great player of his class but now that he’s getting a longer leash, he’s showing flashes of the <strong>all-time great scorer </strong>he can be.</p>
<p>That’s why it seems like the perfect moment to recall when <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/michael-jordan-t85627" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Michael Jordan</strong></a> gave him some adviceto improve his game and <strong>showered him in praise </strong>during his workout with the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/charlotte-hornets-t95447" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charlotte Hornets.</a></strong></p>

<h2>Michael Jordan Says Anthony Edwards Is Stronger, Bigger, And More Athletic Than Him</h2>
<p><em>“It was mostly just, ‘Use your butt more in the post, in the mid-post,’</em>” Edwards said<em>. “I feel like that was the best thing he told me. He was like, <strong>‘You’re stronger than I am. You’re more athletic. You’re bigger than me. </strong>Use your butt more and create more space and you’re gonna be unguardable.&apos;”</em></p>

<p>The Hornets were entitled to the third overall pick of the Draft and hoped that Edwards was going to be available but the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/minnesota%C2%A0timberwolves-t100374" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnesota Timberwolves</a> </strong>ended up taking him, and with<strong> James Wiseman </strong>heading to the <strong>Golden State Warriors; </strong>Michael Jordan picked <strong>LaMelo Ball.</strong></p>

<p>At the end of the day, the Hornets got the franchise player they were craving anyway and Edwards took his talents up north, but not without getting <strong>a confidenceboost from the greatest to ever do it.</strong></p>

<p>Thus far, Anthony Edwards is averaging <strong>16.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 2.1 three-pointers per game</strong> and once he starts taking better shots, those numbers are just going to trend up. He’s got a lot of catching up to do with MJ, but the physical traits are clearly there.</p>

<p>It’s pretty clear that <strong>Anthony Edwards</strong> has a lot of confidence in him and that’s not necessarily a bad team. At the end of the day, you’re only going to make it in the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong> i</a>f you are mentally strong enough to work harder than everybody else.</p>
<p>Then again, it seems like that confidence and blatant honesty have already gotten the first overall pick of the<strong> 2020 NBA Draft</strong> into trouble, as there have been some questions about his maturity recently.</p>
<p>Edwards claimedthat he was ‘living in a pandemic’ before Covid-19 reached the U.S. Then, he said that he wasn’t really into basketball and that <strong>he would quit the NBA to join an NFL team, </strong>and later, he even took a shot at a league veteran.</p>

<h2>Anthony Edwards Says He Can Rap, Unlike Damian Lillard</h2>
<p>The latest addition to the<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/minnesota%C2%A0timberwolves-t100374" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnesota Timberwolves</a>‘ roster</strong>confessed that he was an aspiring rapper like other NBA players and that he would release his tracks pretty soon. Then, he took a shot at <strong>Damian Lillard </strong>– who goes by the stage name<em> Dame D.O.L.L.A </em>-during his interview with <strong>ESPN’s Alex Scarborough:</strong></p>

<p></p>
<p><em>“He goes on to say that he’s an aspiring rapper. He’s already recorded a few tracks with his older brother Bubba. <strong>So, like Damian Lillard? “But I really can rap,” </strong>he says. “Dame, talking about — I don’t know what he’s talking about. I’m rapping like Lil Baby.” He says he won’t release any songs until he’s established in the NBA,”</em> the report read.</p>
<h2>CJ McCollum Fires Back At Anthony Edwards</h2>
<p>That’s why<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/portland-trail-blazers-t102081" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Portland Trail Blazers’</a> </strong>star <strong>CJ McCollum </strong>didn’t hesitate to fire back at the rook and had his teammates’ back, calling him out in an interview with Complex Sports and daring him to work on his skills:</p>

<p><em><strong>“He better work on that jumper.

That’s definitely not the way you want to start your career in the NBA.</p>

NBA Fans react after Anthony Edwards gets drafted as No. 1 overall pick

NBA Fans react after Anthony Edwards gets drafted as No. 1 overall pick - Bolavip US

<p>It’s not unusual to see GMs wary of gambling too much with the first overall pick of the Draft, especially when there is that much uncertainty around most prospects as it’s happening with the class of the<strong> 2020 <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Draft.</strong></p>
<p>But, among all the doubts, questions, red-flags, and the lack of exposure most prospects got, one of the few players who looks like a ‘can’t-miss’ kind of guy is <strong>Anthony Edwards,</strong> who was a lock to be the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/2020-NBA-Draft-lottery-Top-5-prospects---20200820-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> 1st overall pick</a> before the lottery.</p>
<p>The<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/minnesota%C2%A0timberwolves-t100374" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnesota Timberwolves</a></strong> are entitled to that selection and there have been some questions about their need for another guard after trading for <strong>D’Angelo Russell,</strong> while others believe that they should still take him and just try to make things work.</p>

<h2>2020 NBA Draft: Anthony Edwards Wants To Be Drafted By The Minnesota Timberwolves</h2>
<p>And if you were to ask the <strong>Georgia</strong> product, he’d tell you that he’s ready to ball out for whoever drafts him, and that he’s not afraid of Minnesota’s cold weather or the fact that he’d have to share touches with D-Lo on an ever-struggling team.</p>
<p>Edwards told <strong>The Undefeated</strong>that he doesn’t care about the weather<strong> because he’s not going to play basketball out in the open</strong>, which makes sense. Even so, whether the Timberwolves are completely sold on him or not is yet to be seen.</p>

<p>Anthony Edwards has impressive athleticism and a head-turning <strong>shot-making ability</strong>. He’s also shown some flashes in the defensive end and has unlimited upside as a potential franchise player.</p>

<p></p>
<p>Then again, the Timberwolves could try and use their pick to trade down and land a bona fide player, especially amid all the rumors pointing that <strong>Devin Booker wants out of the Phoenix Suns</strong> and would love to join his friends<strong> Karl-Anthony Towns and D’Angelo Russell</strong>in Minnesota.</p>

<p>The<strong> 2020 NBA Draft</strong> is just around the corner, which means that every little single thing that the prospects say or do <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/2020-nba-draft-lamelo-ball-not-a-guaranteed-top-pick-after-disappointing-job-interviews-20201029-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>is going to take a toll </strong></a>– whether for the better or worst – on where they get picked next month.</p>
<p><strong>Anthony Edwards</strong> has been the consensus first-overall pick for most of the year, but given the unorthodox circumstances of this year’s <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA </a>Draft,</strong> he might as well slip, <strong>until no further from the top 3.</strong></p>
<p>There is no such thing as a sure pick at this point of the year, so the prospects must do whatever it takes to convince the executives that they’re the guys for them, <strong>and that’s why Edwards’ agent may want to have a word with him.</strong></p>

<h2>Anthony Edwards Says He Was Already Living In A Pandemic</h2>
<p>The thing is that, right after announcing that he was going to sign with <strong>Rich Paul and Klutch Sports</strong> – which happens to be<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LeBron James’</a> </strong>agency – he shared the wildest take about the Covid-19 pandemic:</p>

<p></p>
<p><em>“I feel like the pandemic is nothing to me. <strong>I was already living in the pandemic</strong> because all I wanted to do is to get better,” t</em>he potential first-overall pick said in an interview, prompting a lot of mockery on social media.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<p></p></div>
<p>Needless to say, it’s clear that Edwards<strong> got a little confused </strong>and probablywanted to say that he was entirely focused on basketball and getting better, but his choice of words was questionable, to say the least.</p>
<p>Edwards has the upside to be one of the best two-way shooting guards in the league and there’s no doubt that <strong>he’s worthy of the risk with a top-3 pick, </strong>and this incident isn’t likely to take a toll on his stock.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Then again, you can be sure that these words will define the narrative and memes around him for the first couple of years of his career and, who knows? <strong>Maybe they’ll still bring thisup once it’s all said and done.</strong></p>

<p>We’ve seen countless hours of prospects footage over the past couple of years. But this year’s atypical season took a toll on plenty of the prospects’ chances to showcase their abilities, as <strong>the NCAA Tourney was canceled.</strong></p>

<h2>5. Deni Avdija</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>College: </strong>International, Israel<br> <strong>Position: </strong>Small Forward<br> <strong>NBA Comparison: </strong>Toni Kukoc<br> <strong>Better Fit: </strong>Atlanta Hawks</p>
<p><strong>Deni Avdija’s</strong> draft stock has risen lately and for very good reasons. Like most <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/international-nba-players-taken-1st-overall-in-the-draft-20200805-0004.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">European prospects</a>, Avdija has already plenty of experience under his belt and a well-developed basketball IQ. He knows how to get to his spots and his size (6’9”) allows him to play and guard multiple spots from the shooting guard to the power forward.</p>
<p>He’s got a well-roundgame and <strong>can do a little bit of everything on both ends of the floor.</strong> He’s a solid playmaker who knows how to pick apart opposing defenses in real-time and find the open guy every time out there and can create his own shot with ease.</p>
<p>On the downside, Avdija has a subpar athleticism and wingspan for his size. He also tends to struggle in the halfcourt and lacks the explosiveness you’d want out of an <strong>NBA-caliber scorer. </strong>He’d be a perfect complement for <strong>Trae Young</strong>and the <strong>Atlanta Hawks </strong>thanks to his ability to draw double teams and play on and off the ball.</p>

<h2>4. Obi Toppin</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Obi Toppin NBA Draft" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Obi Toppin NBA Draft" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200820_BUS_163491_obi_toppin_t_crop1597941840687.jpg_22069893_182bafdc.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Toppin redshirted his first season. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>College: </strong>Dayton, Sophomore<br> <strong>Position:</strong> Power Forward<br> <strong>NBA Comparison:</strong> Kenyon Martin<br> <strong>Better Fit:</strong> Minnesota Timberwolves</p>
<p>No other prospect has risen through big boards like <strong>Obi Toppin</strong>, the human highlight. He came out of the blue to impress with his freakish athleticism, NBA-ready body, strength, and hops. He’s a never-ending source of energy that will finish through contact and dominate above the rim.</p>
<p>Toppin played some five in college and there isn’t a reason to think he couldn’t hold his own below the rim vs. NBA centers, although he gives up some size sitting at just 6’9”. He also <strong>excels out of the pick-and-roll and even showed glimpses of a promising post offense.</strong></p>
<p>Even so, Toppin needs to become a more consistent jump shooter if he wants to make it in today’s NBA. He <strong>lacks the range of modern power forwards</strong> and tends to struggle guarding quicker players. His intensity and grit would be much welcome with the <strong>Minnesota Timberwolves </strong>as he could take some pressure off of <strong>Karl-Anthony Towns.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>College:</strong> Memphis, Freshman<br> <strong>Position: </strong>Center<br> <strong>NBA Comparison: </strong>DeAndre Jordan<br> <strong>Better Fit:</strong> Golden State Warriors</p>
<p><strong>James Wiseman </strong>was considered the consensus 1st-overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft before college hoops season started. He was suspended by the NCAA and he decided to sit out the remainder of the season and work out for the Draft, which is obviously a concern given the lack of footage.</p>
<p>Wiseman is as strong as they come. <strong>He’s an elite finisher and rebounder on both ends of the glass.</strong> He also has the size (7’1”), wingspan, athleticism,and muscle to dominate right away in the league, and proved to be incredibly efficient as a roll man. There’s no denying in Wiseman’s talents and potential to become one of the most disruptive defenders in the league.</p>
<p>However, he tends to overdo things as a rim protector and that often makes him fall for pump fakes and get into foul trouble. <strong>His offense is limited, </strong>to say the least, which may hurt any modern big man. Even so, he’d be perfect to anchor the <strong>Golden State Warriors</strong>‘ defense down low, especially considering the fact that they usually play their centers around 20 minutes a night.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>College: </strong>International, USA<br> <strong>Position: </strong>Point Guard / Shooting Guard<br> <strong>NBA Comparison: </strong>Jamal Crawford<br> <strong>Better Fit:</strong> New York Knicks</p>
<p>As talented as controversial and he is,<strong> LaMelo Ball </strong>may be the best prospect in this year’s class. He’s used to being in the spotlight and is the kind of player who will never back down or hesitate to take a big shot or make a risky play. Offensive-wise, this young man has the whole package.</p>
<p><strong>LaMelo has elite handles and shot-creating ability</strong>. He’s got an outstanding court vision and unlimited range as a shooter. He’s also got the size (6’8”) to play both guard spots and even some small forward, although he must bulk up if he doesn’t want to struggle at the NBA level.</p>
<p>On the downside, Ball’s shot selection is a huge concern. He wants to showcase his skills on every play, especially in isolation, which <strong>makes him prone to making avoidable mistakes.</strong> There are also serious concerns about whether he’ll ever be an average defender but he’s still too talented to overlook. <strong>The New York Knicks</strong> have been looking for a franchise player and starting point guard for years and LaMelo might as well be it, as long as they pair him with Frank Ntilikina’s defensive grittiness in the backcourt.</p>
<h2>1. Anthony Edwards</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>College: </strong>Georgia, Freshman<br> <strong>Position: </strong>Shooting Guard<br> <strong>NBA Comparison: </strong>Dwyane Wade<br> <strong>Better Fit: </strong>Cleveland Cavaliers</p>
<p><strong>Anthony Edwards</strong> sits atop of most mock drafts right now. Most people see him as the consensus 1st-overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft after watching him dominate and steal most of the headlines during his lone season at Georgia.</p>
<p>Edwards is an impressive athlete that can play both guard spots. <strong>He’s got an NBA-ready body and a competitive mindset </strong>that certainly impressed most scouts, as well as his ability to post up and bully opposing players when driving through the lane. He’s also got an impressive basketball IQ, especially when double-teamed, and is a willing passer and solid shot-blocker and rebounder for his position.</p>
<p>Honestly, Edward’s game doesn’t have many flaws. <strong>He does have to work on his free-throw shooting</strong> (shot less than 60% from the stripe) and should know how to make the most of his athletic traits to dominate inside the paint instead of constantly pulling up. He’s almost a lock to join the Warriors if they land the 1st pick but he’d be the perfect guy to build around if you’re the <strong>Cleveland Cavaliers.</strong></p>
