The No. 1 overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft didn’t take long to produce what will go down as a legendary highlight.
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards threw down a VICIOUS poster dunk Friday night on Toronto Raptors forward Yuta Watanabe.
Here are videos and photos of Edwards’ unbelievable Blake Griffin-esque dunk:

It’s hard to imagine a better dunk than that happening in the 2020-21 season, and it’s sure to be one of the best dunks of the decade.
