Anthony Edwards just turned 24 less than a month ago, and the Minnesota Timberwolves guard is reportedly in the best shape of his life, according to head coach Chris Finch.

Finch commended Edwards for his work ethic this offseason, as the Minnesota Timberwolves head coach said that he and some of his teammates have put in a lot of work in the gym to prepare for the 2025-26 NBA campaign.

“He looks amazing. Three percent body fat. He loves being here in the summer. Kind of sets the tone for the gym. We’ve had a lot of our guys in the gym through the summer. That’s what you want,” Finch said during an interview with KFAN-FM 100.3 (via Joe Nelson of SI).

“These guys, this is where they want to be, and they understand Minnesota is a pretty cool place to be during the summer… We’ll shut down the gym here and there. It’s a really good rhythm,” he added.
