“Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert plan summer collaboration, signaling hope for Minnesota Timberwolves future”

The Minnesota Timberwolves’ season has been a disappointment overall. After the XXL trade for Rudy Gobert, the franchise had big goals. And an elimination in the first round of the Playoffs against the Denver Nuggets (1-4) remains a failure. However, there is hope for Anthony Edwards and its partners.

Indeed, after a mixed regular season, Wolves showed a combative face in the Playoffs. There was a world of difference with the Nuggets, but there were encouraging lessons. Now, Minnesota has clearly shown a desire to build around Edwards.

And a good sign, the young talent seems totally invested in the Minnesota project. To the point of planning a trip to France this summer to work with Gobert.

“I love Rudy! Rudy and I understand each other very well. We talk all the time and I think he can really improve, to catch the ball and finish plays. I tell him all the time: ‘ Rudy, I’m going to throw the ball to you every time. I want to see you score on a hook or slam a dunk on the opponent.’

And he replies: ‘I’m here’. This summer, we will get together and work together. He told me to trust him, I started to do that and to give him the ball, he always made the right choice. He continued to do the good deeds inside, finishing or coming out.

I trust him. A flight already booked? Not yet, Rudy has to pay for everything! He’s got all the money.” got married Anthony Edwards for the Star Tribune.

First of all, this is an excellent sign for Rudy Gobert’s place in the Wolves project. Sometimes “shunned” by his teammates, the Frenchman managed to create a good relationship with Edwards. For the future of Minnesota, with Gobert impossible to trade after last year’s investments, the agreement between the two men is essential.

In addition, this summer collaboration between the Habs and the American does not necessarily mean an absence for the native of Saint-Quentin, vague about his intentions, at the World Cup. Anthony Edwards could also accept a possible invitation from Team USA for this tournament.

Finally, if this duo seems on the same wavelength, what about Karl-Anthony Towns ? The plan with two great Wolves interiors looks doomed. And KAT stays “easier” to move. After all, Minnesota has already bet big on Rudy Gobert.

And like Anthony Edwards, maybe it’s time to do it without restraint.
