Anthony Edwards shared his reaction to the Minnesota Timberwolves' trade of Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks.
Speaking to reporters at the Minnesota Timberwolves' Media Day earlier this week, star guard Anthony Edwards said that he was "hurt" by the club's. "It's a business. I just gotta roll with it. I'm ready to get to know them and try to get it figured out as fast as we can because we trying to get back to where we was and go even farther."headlined by three-time All-Star Julius Randle, guard Donte DiVincenzo and a protected first round pick.
When asked if he had been given a chance to give input to the front office on the deal, Edwards said he hadn't because he was on a plane at the time. The trade had to be particularly jarring for Edwards, whose relationship with Towns blossomed into a strong working partnership that resulted in three playoff appearances in the four years the two spent together, including a run to the Western Conference finals this past summer."It was incredible," Edwards said of his relationship with Towns. "That's what we talked about once I landed. We talked on the phone through messages.
"And he sent me a picture of him at the gym at like three in the morning. So that was kind of funny." While they are no longer teammates, it's clear that the two will likely maintain a strong friendship. Edwards's Timberwolves will open the 2024-25 season on Tuesday, October 22 in Los Angeles against the Lakers.Tim Capurso is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
