Magic Johnson blasts Anthony Edwards over dig at NBA players’ skills in the 90s
NY Post
Magic Johnson clapped back at Anthony Edwards in the best way after the Timberwolves star took a dig at NBA players from the 1980s and 90s.
Edwards told the Wall Street Journal in a recent interview that he wasn’t too impressed with players from those eras of the game.
Well, Johnson was told about the comment by Stephen A. Smith while appearing at the Yaamava Resort & Casino with the ESPN personality.
That’s when Johnson fired back at Edwards.
“I never respond to a guy who’s never won a championship,” Johnson told the Smith and the audience, which drew laughter from the crowd. “He didn’t win a college championship, I don’t even know if he won a high school championship.”
Johnson is certainly an authority in the game, especially having won five NBA titles with the Lakers.
