Best strategy to guard Anthony Edwards is becoming painfully obvious

Related Topics: Anthony Edwards

Anthony Edwards is undoubtedly one of the league's best players. However, even great players have flaws and ways to contain them. For the Minnesota Timberwolves star, this involves being physical and forcing Ant to be a playmaker. In last year's playoffs, Edwards somewhat struggled with physicality.

Loading up on Edwards and forcing him into being a playmaker seems to be the blueprint to contain him for now. This is exactly what we saw against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals. In all likelihood, more teams will guard Edwards in this manner going forward.
