Some charity is going to build a nice new wing to their building with all the money Anthony Edwards has been fined.
Add another $50K into the Edwards fine jar. – 9:20 PM

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who is quite the artist in his spare time, couldn’t have drawn it up much better than this…
On his MVP eve, he made his latest case – against Anthony Edwards no less – in this future-face-of-the-league debate, @TheAthletic

Anthony Edwards just emerged from the locker room at the 7:01 mark of the 2Q. Spent five minutes of game time back there, but looks like he is re-entering immediately. – 9:27 PM

“What was it like playing in the Olympics? Anthony Edwards: I mean, I was playing alongside my favorite player, and then I was playing alongside two—three of the greatest players. But besides KD being my favorite—LeBron and Steph, you know what I’m saying? And then like AD, Embiid, Book, JT, Drew D, White, everybody—just Bam—everybody was just fire. Like, everybody had something they did really good that you couldn’t stop. So watching them work out, like everybody was just— I ain’t gonna lie, that was fun.” -via YouTube / May 21, 2025
