Cade Cunningham admits to Kevin Durant which team he prayed not to land with in the draft lottery, and reveals why he was ...
LaMelo Ball and Anthony Edwards are already building chemistry, and the Minnesota Timberwolves might have one of the most entertaining duos in the NBA. After Minnesota acquired LaMelo from the Charlotte Hornets in a blockbuster 2026 offseason trade, the former All-Star point guard joined Anthony Edwards to create a star-studded Timberwolves backcourt featuring the No. 1 and No. 3 picks from the 2020 NBA Draft. Edwards revealed that LaMelo had been spending time at his house as the two became closer off the court, even joking that they were already working together on cleaning up their postgame interviews. LaMelo said he and Ant had known each other for a while, had already been talking, and were excited to get to work together. The basketball fit could be just as exciting: Ball averaged 20.1 points and 7.1 assists across 72 games for Charlotte last season, while his elite passing and playmaking could take pressure off Edwards and create easier opportunities for Minnesota’s franchise superstar. Edwards was also an incredible 49.6% on catch-and-shoot threes last season, giving fans another reason to be excited about what LaMelo’s playmaking could unlock. With LaMelo Ball, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels and Rudy Gobert leading a new-look Minnesota Timberwolves roster, Ant and Melo are building their relationship before the 2026-27 NBA season and preparing to become one of the league’s must-watch backcourts as Minnesota continues chasing an NBA championship.
