Is Anthony Edwards an undisputed top 5 player alongside Jokic, Giannis, Luka & SGA?

[Drygon]

Outside Jokic, Giannis, Luka & SGA.. I think Ant is easily the best player available for any franchise to become a legit contender.

Ant is only 22 years old, but he's already an exceptional playoff performer who can shine in the biggest stage. He's nowhere near close from entering his prime & has tons of potential to show in the next 10 years. Ant is the main reason why Timberwolves have gone from a joke franchise to a genuine Championship contender in 1 season.

Is Ant an undisputed top 5 player in NBA alongside Jokic, Giannis, Luka & SGA?

Undisputed? No.

[Wolfgang630]

Yes, he’s ahead of Embiid who’s a failure in the playoffs

[Primedeion]

Embiid is easily top five.

[jokeboy86]

Still dont think he’s passed Tatum but probably one more season would do it for me. And I get GS didnt make the playoffs but I dont know if I have him over Steph yet either. Only reason anyone would take Ant over Embiid is health cause when both are 100% I’m still takin Embiid.

Like someone else said, an argument can be made but no, he's not an undisputed top 5 player.

Jokic
Giannis
SGA
Luka
Brunson
Edwards
Tatum

Those are my top guys. I can't put guys who do nothing in the playoffs on this list so regular season only players are off.

I think if you were looking at it like "these are the top 5 guys I want today because of what they'll likely be in three years," then I can see it.

[dirkules_41]

Undisputed? Hell no. Disputed? Sure.

[Movics]

Recycling r/nba discussions?

[EmpireFalls]

The fact that you created this thread means by definition that it is not “undisputed”

Jokic, Giannis, and Luka are undisputed top 5 players at the moment. Everyone else there is at least some dispute.

[dygaction]

Even with a ring this year, i think it is too early to say. Need to have at least 2x first-team all nba or 2x top 5 mvp selections to claim top 5, maybe a lot higher standards for "undisputed" top 5.

[Statlanta]

Edwards doesn't sound right as a top 5 player especially with him being backed by so many defensive pieces.

[NZB2323]

Embiid, Tatum, and AD all have arguments over him, and Wemby may have one over him next year.

[Forbes]

I love Ant but he hasn’t reached top 5 yet. He still has a ton of improving to do and we are going to love it.

[NZB2323]

Jokic
Giannis
SGA
Luka
Brunson
Edwards
Tatum

Those are my top guys. I can't put guys who do nothing in the playoffs on this list so regular season only players are off.

I know who you’re talking about, but why isn’t AD on this list? He’s been fantastic this year, he made the WCF last year and has won a championship.

There are 2 sides of the ball and other than Giannis, AD makes a bigger defensive impact than any of the guys on your list.

[AleksandarN]

I agree I love ANT’s game

[CptCrunch]

Go to sleep nephew. There is exact same thread on reddit.

[brutalitops]

Nephew take. Coming from an Edwards lover.

[Rainwater]

Embiid was MVP before the injury, how is he not top 5?
