Anthony Edwards
By many, Anthony Edwards is considered the player in the 2020 NBA Draft with the highest ceiling. If you’ve seen him play, especially the game in which he dropped over 30 in a half against Michigan State, you know he’s an absolute microwave.
With freak athleticism, if Edwards can put it all together, he could easily be one of the NBA’s best players. NBA Draft Room is comparing him to Dominique Wilkins or a bigger Victor Oladipo.
Averaging 19.1 points per game on a pitiful Georgia roster, Edwards was the go-to scoring option. While he didn’t always do it efficiently, Edwards did lead the team to many victories in games they had to real chance in.
Edwards is good, but whether he’s No. 1 overall material is still to be known. He has all the upside, but his floor, given his inefficiencies and lack of playmaking for others, is still up in the air.
If feels as though his NBA ceiling is a better-defending Devin Booker. Edwards, generally speaking, has an uber-low floor. He’d be a risk — one I don’t think the Warriors would be comfortable taking.
