Although some have questioned if all of that confidence is justified, the soon-to-be 21-year-old wing for the Timberwolves is partly unstoppable because of his swagger.
Because of this, he made a perfect "Kermit" in Netflix's "Hustle," the villain of Juancho Hernangomez's Bo Cruz.
Because of this, everyone is interested in what Edwards will do after his sophomore season, during which he averaged 21.3 points per game and helped Minnesota return to the postseason.
Breaking into the West's starting five for the Of-Star game is a challenge because LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Nikola Jokic are guaranteed to start. Space is scarce. But why can't Edwards do it if Andrew Wiggins can?
After the Timberwolves signed Rudy Gobert, staying longer in the playoffs seems more likely. Edwards and the Timberwolves would go out to massive leads only to have the Grizzlies grind them down and win the games last year, sending Minnesota packing in the first round of the playoffs.
Several eyes will be on the Timberwolves this season, with Gobert joining Karl-Anthony Towns in the front line and Edwards entering his third year and primed for a surge.
That's okay with Edwards. He has plenty of confidence.
