Ant so clearly hates being called the face of the league

JB is the head of the league

This guy Brunson is pretty good at basketball

Face of the league still Bron let’s be real here

League doesn’t have a face besides Lebron and there is no particular person on the come up for that like Mahomes was for Brady, its just a collective effort of Shai, Wemby, Ant, Tatum, and now Brunson, prob Luka too but no stand out really. Could be Wemby if he reaches a new level. Most these guys are probably at their ceilings besides Wemby.

Ant seems like a good dude 

None of these young guys are even close to replacing lebron/steph. It would take a lot

Wow, impressed, didn’t expect to hear it from him, even knowing that he’s a humble guy. It takes another level of humbleness to say that.

Face of the league is overrated..
I wanna know who’s the ass of the league? Or feet? Why should the faces get all the love?

Dillon Brooks in the crowd smiling at LeBron James about to be eliminated is my face of the league

There is no “face of the league”

i don’t get why he’s always asked this. he’s a very good player but he’s not top 5 best player in the league. I guess cuz ppl think he’s the best American player currently between him or Tatum, but Tatum has had more success than him these past few years.

i feel like for the overall face, it’s shai for right now or luka

ant’s always been honest about where he’s at, respect that. brunson earned his way into that convo for sure

He’s right, winning a championship is the first step in becoming the face of the league. I think looking forward, it’ll probably be shai or Wemby.

Why is the only time “face of the league” brought up is when Anthony Edwards is involved 😭😭. I never hear this phrase for any other player but ant 

Ant’s been saying this since his rookie year. He just wants to hoop without the circus that comes with being the face. Brunson in NY is actually a solid pick though, big market guy whos proven in the playoffs.

Lmaoo I love Ant but bro just wanna be a young rich NBA player. He shut that face of the league convo down every time it gets brought up. This is not like back in the day everything you do is getting clipped and monetized for views. Young man gotta remember people look up to him even if he don’t want to be a role model. Rooting for him either way.

Ant is amazingly self-aware. It’s refreshing.

I see no lies. It’s not just a talent. It’s also leadership and conducting yourself in a certain matter.

Let me tell you how good jalen brunson is. Hes better than prime kawhi

‘Face of the league’ as a concept is dumb.

face of the league discourse is for casuals

No shit lmao

Adam Silver: “So Anthony, as the face of the league, we’d like you to not swear so much.”

Ant: “Fuck that shit.”

Win. That’s how you become face of the league.

unfortunately, Anthony, you’re the NBA counterpart to “wow, Gronkowski has such a great, marketable personality! He goes to parties, takes his shirt off, and yells ‘woooo!’”

Scottie Barnes future face of this league

Maybe not being an awful dad idk start there

They are searching for someone who will be willing to promote the league to everyone. From NY to Utah to China. For any gender, any nationality.

They should be willing to carry on the current narrative. Brunson doesn’t seems to be ok with that

Nah he’s a bigger fave than Brunson imo

I’ve never sat as comfortably in a chair as Ant does

You can’t be the face of the league while your face resembles that of a bulldog that just licked a nettle.

This man is never not hitting the biggest mansplain ever

“Leave me alone. I want to party”

the thing about brunson is his game translates to any setting. dude was hitting 50/40/90 splits during that 40-point playoff stretch - that efficiency when the defense is keyed in on you is what makes him a real face of the league candidate

For anyone sitting right now - try to put your elbow on your leg and see how close you could get a microphone to your face while leaning back. Good way to get a sense of how long this dudes wingspan is

I mean Ant literally hasn’t done anything to earn that title. Yall fans acting crazy but Ant himself isn’t buying into the hype surrounding himself

Ant heard responsibility and noped the fuck out

Ant could be the best player in the league, but I don’t ever see him committing what it takes to get over that hump.

That’s not to say that he is afraid of the responsibility or that he doesn’t care about being great. Clearly he’s one of the most confident and charismatic players in the league.

I just think it goes back to what his real passion was coming into the NBA, even now, and that’s Football. Playing in the NFL is still his dream. He’s literally talked about leaving the NBA if he wins a chip and trying out for the NFL.

He just so happens to be supremely talented at Basketball, which has afforded him a life that he wouldn’t have been able to live. But he’s not like these other guys top guys who seem like they would risk everything and do whatever it takes mentally to be the best.

Ant is an objectively terrible person. The nba has always been obsessed with players like this

Brunson should be a face ahead of him

This fake humility is the worst, but I’m glad Ant isn’t considered the face of the league – he’s a terrible person anyways.
