2020 Panini Prizm Black Prizms Anthony Edwards RC AUTO DNA 10 1/1 #AEW PSA 10

It was win or go home for the Minnesota Timberwolves against the Los Angeles Clippers in last season’s postseason play-in game, and 20-year-old Anthony Edwards wanted to play more basketball. Edwards scored ten of his team-high 30 points in the fourth quarter, taking command of the game and leading his team to victory. A thunderous dunk and a clutch 3-pointer within the final four minutes of the game helped shift the momentum Minnesota’s way, and fans and teammates were impressed with his takeover in crunch time. The performance gave the Ant Man some national recognition out of a smaller NBA market, and if he can continue to deliver late in games, it bodes well for the Timberwolves, who are coming off a 46-win season. For collectors, market size makes little difference when a player is the first overall selection in the NBA Draft. Such was the case for Edwards in 2020, and since he has done nothing but produce with an exciting flourish, collectors have taken great interest in his best rookie cards. One of the rarest among those is Edwards’ 2020 Panini Prizm Rookie Signatures Black Prizm 1/1 Rookie Auto. This one-of-a-kind example was assessed as a PSA 10 Auto 10, so collectors from across the country will likely be dedicated to watching this listing in the Premier Auction. Edwards has been dedicated to improving his skills throughout the summer, delighting fans along the way by teasing his improvement on social media. He was sent away for the summer with instructions to learn how to become a better closer—despite that phenomenal effort he showed against the Clippers. “It’s not always about trying to make the big play, it’s way more about making the right play at the right time,” said T-Wolves coach Chris Finch. “What I’m excited about Ant’s summer is trying to help him round out his game.” Edwards is eager to show off those new skills in real competition when the season opens on October 19, but before that, collectors will be looking to put the finishing touches on the high bid. We will let you decide how much of the process you want to document on social media.
