During a match against the Chicago Bulls, Ant showed quite an improvement in his game. He scored 19 points in this bout, shooting 8 of 13 from the field. His squad had six players in double figures to help lift the T-Wolves past the Bulls, winning 114-105. But you know what we’re actually here for, right? AE’s dunk.<\/p>\n<p\n\t\tclass=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"\n><br \/>\n\tIt all went down in the 2nd quarter with 4:31 left in the first half. Edwards received the ball at the top of the key and drove straight to the basket. Bulls center Nikola Vucevic was directly in the line of fire. However, he made a business decision and wisely stepped aside, avoiding Ant-Man’s thunderous tomahawk dunk. “WHAMCUH,” the slam said. If you closed your eyes, you could almost imagine heavy artillery being shot out of a cannon at the height of battle. “BLOOOMDUH!” AE’s dunk was like an act of war!<\/p>\n<p\n\t\tclass=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"\n><br \/>\n\tEdwards recognized this dunk and showed a little moxy as his bench celebrated the devastating move. Oh, and did we mention that this game was a preseason match? Yeah, the game didn’t even count, and Edwards played like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vibe.com\/t\/nba\/\" id=\"auto-tag_nba_1\" data-tag=\"nba\" >NBA<\/a> Championship was on the line. That’s a true mark of the greats; believe that.

But the game was all but over after Ant took control of the contest’s flow of battle. Edwards was on fire all game. He scored a team-high 28 points and made his presence felt against a tough, yet injury-stricken Grizzlies squad. In the third quarter, he became as crafty as Hank Pym.

The latter half of the 2023-24 is hitting a pivotal stretch. Teams around the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vibe.com\/t\/nba\/\" id=\"auto-tag_nba_3\" data-tag=\"nba\" >NBA<\/a> are going for broke as they try and secure their spots in the annual playoff tournament.

Power forward John Collins attempted to contest the hand full of power, but it was of no use. Edwards posterized Collins and injured both himself and his opponent in the process.

data-type="text" content="Anthony Edwards' dunks got folks thinking he can become the next face of the NBA. The baller and his Minnesota Timberwolves faced off against the Utah Jazz last Monday, with the 'Wolves beating the Jazz 114-104 as they continue working towards the No.1 seed in the Western Conference. But playoff aspirations be damned. The night's true storyline, though, was Edward's ungodly dunk on Jazz's John Collins. Anthony posterized the power forward into oblivion, all while rocking his signature Adidas AE1's, of course. The dunk spread across social media like wildfire. Some people were dubbing the move the best dunk of the year. Other fans called the jam the best dunk of Anthony Edwards' young career. Overall, there was a consensus that Ant-Man has what it takes to become the face of the NBA. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/uN_JTLl-xds Yes, he is currently 11th in the NBA in scoring, 70th in rebounds, 37th in assists, and 76th in field goal percentages. He has some individual work to do, fasho. But it's the promise of the star that has people talking. Well, that and his awe-inducing skills. Specifically his dunks. When thinking of the best in-game dunkers in NBA history, Vince Carter immediately comes to mind. Yet, Carter's ferociousness and disregard for the iron when yamming the rock are all present in Edwards. Hell, some folks have even compared Ant's blossoming talents to a young rookie Michael Jordan. While legends like MJ, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Steph Curry have received this anointing, Edwards appears to have the God-given talents and personality to wear the crown next. Here are 4 Anthony Edwards dunks showing why he's the face of the NBA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnbCyhE6e-A" />  <style>img#wpstats{display:none}</style> <meta name="robots" content="max-image-preview:large"><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="VIBE.com Feed" href="https://www.vibe.com/feed/rss/" /><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="VIBE.com » News Feed" href="https://www.vibe.com/c/news/feed/" /><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="VIBE.com » Sports Feed" href="https://www.vibe.com/c/news/sports/feed/" /> <script> !function(a){"use strict";a.loadCSS||(a.loadCSS=function(){});var b=loadCSS.relpreload={};if(b.support=function(){var b;try{b=a.document.createElement("link").relList.supports("preload")}catch(c){b=!1}return function(){return b}}(),b.bindMediaToggle=function(a){function b(){a.addEventListener?a.removeEventListener("load",b):a.attachEvent&&a.detachEvent("onload",b),a.setAttribute("onload",null),a.media=c}var c=a.media||"all";a.addEventListener?a.addEventListener("load",b):a.attachEvent&&a.attachEvent("onload",b),setTimeout(function(){a.rel="stylesheet",a.media="only x"}),setTimeout(b,3e3)},b.poly=function(){if(!b.support())for(var c=a.document.getElementsByTagName("link"),d=0;d<c.length;d++){var e=c[d];"preload"!==e.rel||"style"!==e.getAttribute("as")||e.getAttribute("data-loadcss")||(e.setAttribute("data-loadcss",!0),b.bindMediaToggle(e))}},!b.support()){b.poly();var c=a.setInterval(b.poly,500);a.addEventListener?a.addEventListener("load",function(){b.poly(),a.clearInterval(c)}):a.attachEvent&&a.attachEvent("onload",function(){b.poly(),a.clearInterval(c)})}"undefined"!=typeof exports?exports.loadCSS=loadCSS:a.loadCSS=loadCSS}("undefined"!=typeof global?global:this); </script> <script type="application/ld+json"> {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"News","item":"https:\/\/www.vibe.com\/c\/news\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Sports","item":"https:\/\/www.vibe.com\/c\/news\/sports\/"}]} </script> <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var pmc_site_config = {"rot13_hostname":"jjj.ivor.pbz","hostname":"www.vibe.com","is_proxied":null}; /* ]]> */ </script> <script type="application/javascript"> var googletag = googletag || {}; googletag.cmd = googletag.cmd || []; googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs(); }); var blogherads = blogherads || {}; blogherads.adq = blogherads.adq || []; blogherads.adq.push(function() { var config = { c3: '3940384', options: {} }; }); (function ( blogherads ) { blogherads.adq.push( function () { blogherads.setConf('adhesion_close_control_mobile','disable'); blogherads.setConf( 'vertical', 'news' ); blogherads.setTargeting( 'pt', 'pmc_list' ); blogherads.setTargeting( 'ci', 'ART-1234863239' ); blogherads.setTargeting( 'tag', ["anthony-edwards","karl-anthony-towns","kobe-bryant","lebron-james","michael-jordan","mike-conley-jr","minnesota-timberwolves","nba","vince-carter"] ); blogherads.setTargeting( 'kw', ["news","sports","anthony-edwards","karl-anthony-towns","kobe-bryant","lebron-james","michael-jordan","mike-conley-jr","minnesota-timberwolves","nba","vince-carter"] ); blogherads.setTargeting( 'skin', Math.floor( ( Math.random() * 12 ) + 1 ).toString() );// Needed for serving mutiple campaigns } ); })( blogherads ); </script> <meta name="fragment" content="!" /> <script type="text/javascript"> ajaxurl = 'https://www.vibe.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php'; gpid = '1234863239'; cpage = '' </script> <script type="text/plain" class="optanon-category-C0003"> if (window.pmc_jwplayer) { window.pmc_jwplayer.init({"players":["vR2Qdvoq"]}); } </script>  <meta property="og:type" content="article" /> <meta property="og:title" content="4 Anthony Edwards Dunks That Show Why He’s The Next Face Of The NBA" /> <meta property="og:url" content="https://www.vibe.com/lists/anthony-edwards-best-dunks/" /> <meta property="og:description" content="Here are 4 Anthony Edwards dunks showing why the Minnesota Timberwolves superstar is the next face of the NBA.
