We are used to American players not following basketball outside the NBA, but it seems that Anthony Edwards has pushed those boundaries.
United States continues with great preparations for upcoming FIBA World Cup. Steve Kerr’s team is still undefeated in four preseason games, although they were expected to have setbacks with the new roster. One of the best in the team is definitely Anthony Edwards, who was the best in the last victory against Greece.
His team won 108:86, and it was Edwards who was the best actor of the match. He scored 21 points with four rebounds. However, after the match there was more talk about his statemen.
“Um, I didn’t even know we are going to play them again in 10 days. But that’s cool. It should be, it should be a better game.” – the guard said for The Athletic.
When it comes to the game itself, Edwards points out that the key was the energy and the great Jalen Brunson:
“Energy. JHart energy, Austin Reeves came in and made great plays, and shout out to Jalen Brunson, man. You know, head of the snake. Didn’t get it going until the 4th, and he showed resilience throughout the whole game. That’s big time. We need that from our leader.“
