The entire league is patiently waiting to see if an official trade will happen on Thursday or if this saga will push through the offseason.
Right now, the Minnesota Timberwolves remain in the driver's seat in the Giannis derby. With a plethora of assets and key pieces, they are reportedly on the table that the Milwaukee Bucks are favoring for a potential Antetokounmpo trade.
But in the wake of the team's continued hunt for Giannis, it appears that Anthony Edwards is pretty much hesitant to see a scenario in which Jaden McDaniels leaves.
Right after their 128-126 Wednesday win over the Toronto Raptors, Edwards dropped lofty, yet intriguing remarks about the importance of McDaniels to Minnesota.
“Jaden McDaniels does what he does, man. Every night in, every night out, man. We depend on him a lot for our offense and defense," Edwards said in his walk-off interview.
"He’s a key piece for us.”
