Kevin Durant's Classy Message for Anthony Edwards After Getting Swept by Timberwolves
Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns' turbulent 2023-24 season came to an end on Sunday night at the hands of Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Edwards, the 22-year-old rising star, dropped 40 points on KD and the Suns, delivering the final knockout blow to complete the sweep of Phoenix in Game 4.
After the game, Durant spoke with reporters about the series and shared the classiest message about Edwards.
"So impressed by Ant," Durant told reporters after Game 4. "My favorite player in the league to watch....love everything about Ant."
Edwards shared a similar message about Durant after Game 4, adding that he's going to poke some fun at KD when the two meet up for the Olympics this summer.
"I watch every last one of his games since I been about 5…excited to play with him this summer, talk a little trash let him know I sent him home," Edwards said.
Durant is clearly embracing the mentor role for Edwards, and Edwards is soaking it up.
Edwards is quickly gaining the respect of the NBA's top players.
