Anthony Edwards is one of the best players in the NBA and has an opportunity to catapult himself to even higher levels of stardom this spring with a Minnesota Timberwolves championship run. He is also extremely confident in his ability and has not been known to shy away from making bold claims about his game.

Anthony Edwards was unable to lead the Minnesota Timberwolves to victory in Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors, and a former NBA MVP criticized his performance. The Western Conference semifinal series between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Golden State Warriors tipped off Tuesday night at Target Center.

Charles Barkley had some words for Anthony Edwards after his rough Game 1 performance against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. Edwards finished with 23 points on 9-of-22 shooting, but managed just one point in the first half and failed to deliver the spark head coach Chris Finch hoped for in the series opener.
