The Timberwolves star ended his list by mentioning Deandre Ayton. However, Edwards mentioned that Ayton was on the list because he was with the Lakers.

Edwards starred in the Timberwolves' run to the Western Conference Finals last season. He was fired up to take on the Lakers in the first round as many analysts and fans had predicted Edwards' team to lose the series, especially after Luka Doncic arrived in LA.
