Edwards Drafted No. 1

Timberwolves Select Guard With First Overall Pick

Edwards Dazzles in NBA Debut

In November 2020, Anthony Edwards was selected as the No. 1 overall pick by the Minnesota Timberwolves on draft night. On December 23, 2020, Edwards made his NBA debut, putting up 15 points and 4 rebounds.

Edwards is a powerful guard with elite length and explosiveness. He is tough to contain, especially in transition, and has a strong first step and bouncy off one foot.

The Timberwolves took Edwards with the No. 1 pick in Wednesday's NBA draft. James Wiseman went second to the Warriors, and LaMelo Ball went third to the Hornets.
