Nikola Jokic Makes Feelings Clear About Anthony Edwards After Timberwolves-Nuggets

After the game, Anthony Edwards spoke highly of Jokic.

Edwards (h/t Dane Moore of Blue Wire): "That might have been the best game of my life. That I've been a part of. Nikola Jokic... He might be the best basketball player I've ever seen. Like, close up. Besides myself, too myself."

When Jokic met with the media he was told about the quote from Edwards (and asked about his performance).

Jokic: "Ant is funny... He just took off. That's what superstars do, and he's a special person and special player, I think, in this league."

Edwards finished the win with 34 points, ten rebounds, eight assists and one steal while shooting 12/25 from the field and 5/15 from the three-point range in 50 minutes of playing time.
