Anthony Edwards has made an extraordinary leap in the NBA, transitioning from a self-proclaimed All-Star last season to a widely lauded figure this year. Not only have fans and commentators recognized his exceptional performance leading the Minnesota Timberwolves, but even current league superstars like Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The NBA’s ANT-MAN has his favorite pick for the playoffs, as he drove in the futuristic Tesla Cybertruck. Dubbed in an all gray Adidas outfit, the Timberwolves shooting guard shot a short video in the light flashing EV.
However, as soon as the video surfaced online, the NBA fans did not shy off in ridiculing the two-time NBA All-Star and went on to remind him of who pulled off in the Cybertruck prior to him.
An X/Twitter user wrote while poking fun at Edwards and wrote: “Shai did it first.”
Recently, Oklahoma City Thunder’s rising star, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, made a remarkable entrance at a recent home game as he arrived in the iconic Tesla Cybertruck.
While another user wrote: ‘I hope he scheduled his recall appointment’, taking a dig at Tesla’s announcement of recalling around 4,000 Cybertrucks for the accelerator pedal issue.
Earlier, there were numerous complaints of the model having a faulty accelerator paddle that got stuck at times while pressing it and it also led to the electric pickup truck getting into a crash.
However, there were many users put on their words on the post, let’s delve into a few of the top comments:

Among the stellar names mentioned were LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Victor Wembanyama, Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic, and Stephen Curry. However, Giannis reserved a special commendation for Anthony Edwards, highlighting his exceptional two-way play and team-oriented approach on the court.
