Anthony Edwards will be league MVP next year. He is the new face of the NBA people have been waiting for. 40 points on 23 shots, seven 3’s, 9 rebounds and 6 assists to sweep the star studded Suns. This guy just keeps getting better and has that DAWG in him. Unreal. pic.twitter.com/GFjcH5gjGx

I’ve already said this but I truly think that Anthony Edwards is the American Face of the league that the NBA has been searching for in the Post-Bron era.

Anthony Edwards is going to save the young generation of American hoopers. It was looking rough.
He’s already better than most and he’s not close to as good as he’s going to be.
