Connery: Edwards will be one of the best in history He is also on this road!

June 3rd Timberwolves President Tim Connery commented on Edwards at the team's season summary press conference, saying that Edwards will become one of the best players in history.

"I think the most prominent feature of him is his competitiveness and toughness, which sounds a bit old-fashioned, but that's him. What he is most praised now is that he has won so many games at such a young age, especially the team he is in has not won much before he came.

"He is a player who is both offensive and defensive, and he has made progress in three-pointers and reading defense this year. The sky is his limit, we think he will be one of the best in history, and we think he is on this road.

"This offseason has become even more challenging for him because we once again raised the standard of demanding him, not only for him personally, but also for the entire team. I think his offense and defense are also required to learn from him to a certain extent," Connery said.

This season, Edwards played 79 regular season games for the Timberwolves, averaging 27.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals per game, and was selected for the second team of the All-Squad. He played in 15 playoff games, averaging 25.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game, leading the team to defeat the Lakers and Warriors, but lost to the Thunder 1-4 and stopped in the Western Conference Finals.
