Anthony Edwards is actively working to elevate his game to match the elite levels of players like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Luka Dončić, acknowledging he still has room for growth after a strong recent season.

According to reports, Edwards did not participate in international play this summer, allowing him to focus solely on improving his game.

This summer, Edwards has been less active on social media and made few public appearances, choosing instead to focus on physical and mental preparation for the upcoming NBA season.

He recognizes his role as the central figure and leader of the Minnesota Timberwolves and is committed to stepping up his leadership and performance to help the team advance further.

Last season, Edwards averaged 27.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game, earning All-Star and All-NBA honors, establishing himself as a key player for the Timberwolves.

Despite reaching the Western Conference Finals and competing against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Edwards remains dissatisfied with his progress and is determined to win a championship.
