"What kind of Michael Jordan's son is this?" - Anthony Edwards leaves NBA fans peeved as he angles for High School Musical remake

Anthony Edwards had a unique revelation for his fans and followers. The Minnesota Timberwolves guard, who has an IMDb page of his own, replied to a reporter's curiosity on Saturday when asked to name the "most ridiculous basketball scene" in a movie or television series.

The "Ant-Man" took the opportunity with both hands and put his words out for his favorite basketball scene and said:

“I like High School Musical for some reason, Troy Bolton. I like the scenes. It was pretty dope.”

After his on-court prowess, Edwards let his inner wanna-be actor out and made a curious remark about starring in the remake of the movie High School Musical.

“I would. I actually would for sure.”

However, his thoughts on featuring in the remake of the movie had the NBA fans talking. As soon as the clips from his NBA All-Star press interview surfaced online, the basketball enthusiasts ran into the comments section with their views.

Anthony Edwards played a role in Adam Sandler's Hustle

Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards showcased his acting chops in the basketball movie Hustle, produced by Adam Sandler and LeBron James. It was released on Netflix.
