<p class="whitespace-pre-wrap break-words">Anthony Edwards, the shooting guard out of Georgia was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves, and trust us, he has more than lived up to the hype so far. With a blend of explosive scoring ability, improved playmaking, and locked-in defensive effort up his sleeve, <em>"Ant-Man"</em> as he's been dubbed by his father, has Timberwolves fans hoping for big things.</p>

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><img class="size-full wp-image-2902560 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Anthony-Edwards.webp" alt="" width="1200" height="675" /></h2>
The 6'4" Edwards has wowed fans and analysts alike with his athleticism and fearlessness attacking the rim, garnering comparisons to the great Michael Jordan already, both for his play style and grit. He seems to love mixing soaring dunks and creative finishes among his repertoire of step-back threes and silky mid-range jumpers. In the course of this regular season, Edwards has also really developed his outside shot, upping his three-point percentage to 36%. He currently wears the number five for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Anthony Edwards' early life and career</b></h2>
<p class="whitespace-pre-wrap break-words">Born August 5, 2001, in Atlanta, Georgia, Anthony Edwards was raised by his mother, Yvette Edwards-Prempeh in the Eastlake neighborhood of Atlanta.

<p class="whitespace-pre-wrap break-words">Coming out of high school, it seemed he was already destined for big things.

</div>
After being one of the most sought-after prospects, the Minnesota Timberwolves drafted him with their number one overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft. Initially, he came off the bench for the Timberwolves, but injuries to starters gave him the chance to be part of the starting lineup. Notably, he was the highest draft pick by Minnesota since they took Karl-Anthony Towns 1st overall in 2015

In his rookie season, Edwards stepped into a starting role right away, averaging 19.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game. He recorded a season-high 42 points against the Phoenix Suns in March and was also named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.Â His breakout season came in 2022-23, where he emerged as a bona fide star, averaging 24.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.6 steals. Edwards also earned his first All-Star selection, starting in the game for the West as he was a key part of the Timberwolves returning to playoffs at a 42-40 record.

He has solidified his starting spot after establishing himself as a reliable scoring option on the Wolves. At such a young age, and with this level of effort, athleticism, and potential, he can be one of the best wing players in the league in the years to come, having already received comparisons to the great Michael Jordan.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is James Harden?</b></h2>
<p class="whitespace-pre-wrap">James Harden has been one of the NBA's most talented offensive players over the last decade. The bearded shooting guard is known for his crafty style, superb ability to create his shot, and excellence at driving to the basket and drawing fouls.</p>
<p class="whitespace-pre-wrap">After being selected #3 overall in the 2009 draft out of Arizona State, Harden first made his mark with the Oklahoma City Thunder. He, however, blossomed into a superstar after a 2012 trade to the Houston Rockets, developing creative moves like his signature step-back jump shot. With his scoring touch, he won MVP honors in 2018 and three scoring titles while with the Rockets, solidifying his status among the game's current greats.</p>

<h2 class="whitespace-pre-wrap" style="text-align: center"><b>James Harden's early life</b></h2>
James Harden was born on August 26, 1989, in Los Angeles, California, and spent most of his early life there. James Harden's parents are James Harden Sr. and Monja Willis. Since his father was in and out of prison throughout his childhood, Harden was mostly raised by his mother. He was the youngest of three children and there is a ten-year age gap between him and his next sibling. His elder brother is Akili Roberson, who has played college football. His elder sister, Arnique Jelks, is an interior designer.

Harden was nicknamed Lucky by his mother because Willis had multiple miscarriages before giving birth to him. Raising her children in Compton, Willis encouraged them to pursue sports to stay out of trouble.

The Beard developed a love for the game of basketball when he was very young and started playing the sport passionately. Soon, Harden became one of the most talented high school stars in the state. After graduating from Artesia High School, Lakewood in 2007, he received multiple college offers and committed to Arizona State University. Harden played two years of college basketball where he impressed many and declared for the NBA draft in 2009.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>James Harden's wife and children</b></h2>
Harden has been in romantic relationships with many high-profile celebrities, like Amber Rose, Khloe Kardashian, Brittany Renner, and Ashanti, among others. Currently, the 2018 NBA MVP is rumored to be in a relationship with model Jessyka Jenshel.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>James Harden's career timeline</b></h2>
James Harden started playing baseball after his mother Monja Willis encouraged her kids to pursue sports. A young James then turned to basketball and fell in love with the game. He soon developed impressive skills and always believed that he would one day play in the NBA. A few years later, he was a high school superstar and led his team to back-to-back state championships. Harden was also named a McDonald's All-American for his performances.

Harden's basketball coach Scott Pera was a huge reason behind the latter's success in high school. So Harden promised Pera that he would commit to whichever school he joined. After Pera joined Arizona State University as an assistant coach, Harden kept his promise and committed to the school. Harden's ascension continued in college where he caught the eyes of NBA teams. After two years, he declared for the NBA draft in 2009.

The Oklahoma City Thunder selected Harden as the 3rd pick of the draft. The Thunder already had young stars like Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook in their ranks. So Harden had to earn his time and come off the bench. He did not start any game in his rookie season despite playing 76 games. Also, he started only 7 games in his three-year stint with the Thunder. In his third year, Harden won the Sixth-Man of the Year award averaging 16.8 points per game. However, his time at OKC came to an end after the Thunder lost the 2011-12 NBA Finals.

[caption id="attachment_2205482" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2205482" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0045805835h.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1748" /> December 19, 2019, Los Angeles, California, USA: James Harden 13 of the Houston Rockets during warmups prior to their NBA, Basketball Herren, USA game with the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday December 19, 2019 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

OKC could have had one of the best trios ever. But they were reluctant to give Harden a Max deal, and he was not ready to accept anything less. So the Thunder traded Harden to the Houston Rockets, which allowed him to showcase his full potential. In his first season with the Rockets, Harden erupted for 25.9 points per game, which was a massive jump from the previous year. He also made the All-Star Team for the first time in his career in the same season. Harden continued his offensive dominance and was unstoppable at times. In 2018, he was the scoring champion and also clinched the NBA MVP award. He won the scoring title in the next two seasons as well. However, he could not lead the Rockets to the NBA Finals.

After spending nine seasons with the Rockets, Harden played for the Brooklyn Nets for less than two years. He then joined the Philadelphia 76ers in 2021 and has been an integral part of the team since then. Even <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-active-basketball-news-overconfident-james-harden-emphasises-respect-after-securing-second-straight-dub-for-clippers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">though he is not his MVP self</a> anymore, Harden is still a great playmaker who has averaged over 10 assists per game in the last five seasons. He was also the assists leader for the 2022-23 season.

James Harden

Who is James Harden? James Harden has been one of the NBA&#8217;s most talented offensive players over the last decade. The bearded shooting guard is known for his crafty style, superb ability to create his shot, and excellence at driving to the basket and drawing fouls. After being selected #3 overall in the 2009 draft out of Arizona State, Harden first made his mark with the Oklahoma City Thunder. He, however, blossomed into a superstar after a 2012 trade to the Houston Rockets, developing creative moves like his signature step-back jump shot. With his scoring touch, he won MVP honors in 2018 and three scoring titles while with the Rockets, solidifying his status among the game&#8217;s current greats. James Harden&#8217;s early life James Harden was born on August 26, 1989, in Los Angeles, California, and spent most of his early life there. James Harden&#8217;s parents are James Harden Sr. and Monja Willis. Since his father was in and out of prison throughout his childhood, Harden was mostly raised by his mother. He was the youngest of three children and there is a ten-year age gap between him and his next sibling. His elder brother is Akili Roberson, who has played college football. His elder sister, Arnique Jelks, is an interior designer. Harden was nicknamed Lucky by his mother because Willis had multiple miscarriages before giving birth to him. Raising her children in Compton, Willis encouraged them to pursue sports to stay out of trouble. The Beard developed a love for the game of basketball when he was very young and started playing the sport passionately. Soon, Harden became one of the most talented high school stars in the state. After graduating from Artesia High School, Lakewood in 2007, he received multiple college offers and committed to Arizona State University. Harden played two years of college basketball where he impressed many and declared for the NBA draft in 2009. James Harden&#8217;s wife and children Harden has been in romantic relationships with many high-profile celebrities, like Amber Rose, Khloe Kardashian, Brittany Renner, and Ashanti, among others. Currently, the 2018 NBA MVP is rumored to be in a relationship with model Jessyka Jenshel. James Harden&#8217;s career timeline James Harden started playing baseball after his mother Monja Willis encouraged her kids to pursue sports. A young James then turned to basketball and fell in love with the game. He soon developed impressive skills and always believed that he would one day play in the NBA. A few years later, he was a high school superstar and led his team to back-to-back state championships. Harden was also named a McDonald&#8217;s All-American for his performances. Harden&#8217;s basketball coach Scott Pera was a huge reason behind the latter&#8217;s success in high school. So Harden promised Pera that he would commit to whichever school he joined. After Pera joined Arizona State University as an assistant coach, Harden kept his promise and committed to the school. Harden&#8217;s ascension continued in college where he caught the eyes of NBA teams. After two years, he declared for the NBA draft in 2009. The Oklahoma City Thunder selected Harden as the 3rd pick of the draft. The Thunder already had young stars like Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook in their ranks. So Harden had to earn his time and come off the bench. He did not start any game in his rookie season despite playing 76 games. Also, he started only 7 games in his three-year stint with the Thunder. In his third year, Harden won the Sixth-Man of the Year award averaging 16.8 points per game. However, his time at OKC came to an end after the Thunder lost the 2011-12 NBA Finals.

But they were reluctant to give Harden a Max deal, and he was not ready to accept anything less. So the Thunder traded Harden to the Houston Rockets, which allowed him to showcase his full potential. In his first season with the Rockets, Harden erupted for 25.9 points per game, which was a massive jump from the previous year. He also made the All-Star Team for the first time in his career in the same season. Harden continued his offensive dominance and was unstoppable at times. In 2018, he was the scoring champion and also clinched the NBA MVP award. He won the scoring title in the next two seasons as well. However, he could not lead the Rockets to the NBA Finals. After spending nine seasons with the Rockets, Harden played for the Brooklyn Nets for less than two years. He then joined the Philadelphia 76ers in 2021 and has been an integral part of the team since then. Even though he is not his MVP self anymore, Harden is still a great playmaker who has averaged over 10 assists per game in the last five seasons. He was also the assists leader for the 2022-23 season. Nov 14, 2023; Denver, Colorado, USA; LA Clippers guard James Harden (1) during the first quarter against the Denver Nuggets at Ball Arena.
