The Minnesota Timberwolves are having a great season, with only five losses out of 23 games played so far. They are leading the Northwest Division and a huge part of this success is credited to the man behind the action, Anthony Edwards. The sky is the limit for the 22-year-old star who has a dominating presence on the court, and he hasn’t even reached his peak yet.
ANT-Man Edwards signed a deal with Adidas in 2020 and this collaboration has finally birthed his debut signature shoes called the AE 1s. Leading up to the start of the season, we have seen sneak peeks of the shoes through different ads that the multi-billion dollar company put out. The wait is finally over as they officially launched the shoes today, and in a special interview, ANT spells some beans about his personal life.
