Anthony Edwards, the standout player for the Minnesota Timberwolves, continues to impress as one of the league’s most promising young talents. In the recent game against the Houston Rockets, he displayed his remarkable skills again, reminding everyone why he is considered a truly exceptional player. However, his post-game interview also garnered significant traction.
With just 23 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Edwards received the ball and showcased his skills. He could make a safer two-point shot that would tie the game at 112. However, instead of settling for overtime, he sank an incredible three-pointer to take the lead. In the post-game interview, the star player referenced a famous line by former NBA player Gilbert Arenas to illustrate his point.
“Like Gilbert Arenas said, I don’t do overtime, so f**k it,” Edwards said.
“I gotta go get it, shit… I don’t do overtime so fuck it.”
