I want to say TWolves, but curious how those pieces will fit with Anthony Edwards.
Side question I had with a coworker who is a TWolves fan, after LeBron retires, who do you think the NBA will "pick" to be the face of their product, and could it be Edwards?
Hard to say. NBA does have a lot of aging superstars now. Lebron, Curry, KD. I think @Undisciplined did a post about the next face of the NBA awhile ago.
Doncic, Ant Man, SGA, Wemby seem to be potential candidates for the next crop of faces of the league.

I think Edwards, he has the 'face' for it. I would have thought Ja Morant would be in the convo if it wasn't for his controversies and gun issues.
reply
I think Edwards has the temperament for it too. He wants to be the guy. You could see that in the Olympics. He was playing with Lebron et al and still wanted to be the number one option.

I had the same feeling about the trade. I think it's close, just looking at the current roster changes, but the draft pick gave Minnesota the edge.
My money's on Edwards as the next face of the league, unless Wemby has enough charisma in English to snatch it away from the Americans.

I don't like that draft pick as much as I did last night. It's from Detroit. Top 13 protected next draft. Top 11 protected in 26. Top 9 protected in 27. I don't know if Detroit will be good at any point in the next few years but if they are the most you can likely expect is a mid first rounder. Still not a bad asset but not as huge a get as I expected when I heard a pick from Detroit.

That's true, but one bad lottery ball bounce in the next three years could get them a nice draft pick.
