Georgia Bulldogs guard Anthony Edwards sits down with ESPN NBA draft analyst Mike Schmitz to break down film on his transition aggressiveness (0:47); quick decisions (3:30); finishing finesse (7:53); off-ball movement (8:42); off-hand passing (10:12); individual and team defense (12:08) and attacking the glass (18:58).

First time I'm seeing highlights of Anthony Edwards. Actually had heard a lot more discussion of him than I had anything else. People saying he was high risk/high reward, underdeveloped player, etc... I see a guy who fits the mold of a top 5 draft pick that gets there. His strengths are all very project-able & useful in the NBA. His weaknesses, for the most part, are all things that should improve with time & maturity and practice. Edwards feels like a future All Star, which is what you want when you take a guy in the top 5 of the draft.

Anthony Edwards is one of those guys, if he can stay healthy and develop with a franchise he will be a great leader and teammate at the NBA level for sure! Excited to see what he's going to do at the next level, rooting for him.

Incredibly vocal and vulnerable while remaining confident and positive. Watching this just sky rocketed his stock for me.

Apart from the obvious i.e. his athleticism & downright skill you can tell this kid is going to be special just by the way he talks. A lot of athletes are dumb as rocks from an intellectual perspective but this kid is well spoken and clearly has a brain between his ears. Take Kobe for example. Dude became one of the greats because he was smart cat and knew what he wanted and knew how to get it. This kid has the same kind of mentality about him. He's smart charismatic thinks about the game in a surgical kind of way & knows how to critique himself. And he's got that dog in him. That's a recipe for success right there.

I'm impressed. He seems to genuinely love the game. Not all prospects do.

I saw one set of highlights. Gave me Michael Jordan vibes. He loves what Jimmy Butler did to the TWolves in practice. I really like his attitude. Smart enough to make progress by reflecting on his mistakes. His coach sounds like a perfect fit. And this is definitely a franchise guy

Glad to see a prospect engaged with Mike.

He has a great IQ and he knows how to break down the game

Love the emphasis on simple basketball and simple reads. The game should be like a jumpshot, Make it as simple and repeatable as possible, adjust when they take that away.
