Anthony Edwards, the Timberwolves’ rising star, couldn’t help but express his admiration for Jokic’s performance. “That might have been the best game of my life that I’ve been a part of,” Edwards remarked, emphasizing Jokic’s prowess on the court. “He’s incredible, bro. I don’t know how to describe it. He might be the best basketball player I’ve ever seen up close, besides myself.” Edwards acknowledged the fierce competition in the MVP race, hinting at the challenge of surpassing Jokic’s remarkable display.
