Anthony Edwards delivered impressive performances for the Minnesota Timberwolves during the 2024-25 NBA season, steering them into the Western Conference finals. He showcased his skills magnificently in the first round against the Los Angeles Lakers, dominating the series.
The Timberwolves also triumphed over the Golden State Warriors in the conference semifinals. However, they encountered substantial hurdles in the conference finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, ultimately falling short with a 1-4 series defeat. Following their playoff exit, Paul George pointed out in the recent episode of ‘Podcast P with Paul George’ that there’s one particular skill Edwards must sharpen to elevate his game further.
“Where I think Ant’s gotta get better at, he’s gotta develop a post-game. Where he can let the game slow down, he can get to one dribble and raise up and shoot… Get to an elbow, get to the mid-post where you can see the whole floor, and play from there. I think that’s the next evolution for Ant,” George said.
