The Anthony Edwards Basketball playoff Saga continues. Edwards shook hands before the game was over. Who does that??? First, you get the dog shit beat out of you, then you shake hands with the Spurs with eight minutes left in the game. Was it sportsmanship or just a dumb act?
Unusual mid-game gesture:Â With eight minutes left in Game 6, Edwards approached the Spurs bench to congratulate players, drawing surprise and criticism from NBA veterans.
Legends weigh in:Â Dirk Nowitzki, Udonis Haslem, and Blake Griffin said the act should have waited until after the game, viewing it as poor leadership optics.
Edwards stands firm: The Timberwolves star said he knew he wouldn’t return to the game and wanted to show respect, despite the blowout ending Minnesota’s season.
