...Cal may still be the coach at UK. So, thank you, rim! You are the MVP of the 2023-24 season!
If the rim doesn't block that Edwards dunk attempt...
- Thread starter Jireh
- Start date
Whatever happened to Edwards anyway? Is he in the G league?
He was called back up.
He scored 7 on Sunday.
Magic 104-99 76ers (Jan 12, 2025) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the Orlando Magic vs. Philadelphia 76ers NBA game from January 12, 2025 on ESPN. Includes all points, rebounds and steals stats.
Which one?
The rim blocked SEVERAL of Edward’s shots last year as I remember.
This gets filed up there with Briscoe repeatedly stepping on the baseline.
It was his SIGNATURE MOVE!

Askew did it a few times as well if I remember correctly.
Wow; kid came in with huge expectations and if you had not posted this, I totally forgot about him.
Not saying he was a flop but like many others, had talent for the NBA but not enough to compete for a big role. Who knows, in two years he may be gone and playing overseas.
Like it was said, its not whether you have NBA talent, it is more can you get that 2nd contract.

he may turn out to be a player, but @ UK , he was basically a flop
He came in with so much notoriety, but never came close to living up to it
again, it could be the lack of coaching he received too

He was ENABLED by COW instead of developed.
Kid just wasn’t confident enough to get through his stuff.
Edwards is the kind of guy you'd love to see play 3 years or more in college. Was never going to happen with the culture Cal created but I think he could have been awesome in college if he hung around.
And Poythress, it's like each of his feet were two feet long.
I wont stand for Briscoe hate. #1 PG forced to play SF at 6'1
Didn’t Edwards say right before the draft last summer that he was the best player on last years team? 😂😂
PTSD smdh.
Never forget
And a damn good rebounder. Id like to have seen Briscoe play PG at UK.
If we are being honest he probably made a poor decision coming to Kentucky. It was down to us and St. Johns if I remember correctly
The sadness in the body language of the one UK bench player that stood up for that dunk speaks volumes. That guy was speaking for all of us in that moment.
Never forget
I think Wheeler clanking those two free throws against St Peters helped too.
A while back I said it wouldn't be the worst idea to throw like $20 bucks on Edward's winning ROY for the 76ers, just at the smallest chance a highly touted recruit figures it out in the NBA. You'd win like $5,000 to $10,000
.. so I basically just donated $20 to Vegas, more or less lol.

Good for him! He’s another player grossly misused by Cal achieving success on their own and using their abilitiesHe was called back up.

Poythress underachieved here, but stayed and improved. He was an important cog in our team that made the finals.
I'll never forget his D on Pushcock in the Loserville game. Priceless.
Edwards was predicted to be the #1 pick before the season started.

Dang I thought that was closer to the end of that game. Still 11 mins left when it happened. I was on a Carnival Cruise that night and when that play happened I told my wife we were 100% losing and almost stopped watching. Missing out on cruise fun to watch that wasn't worth it. Worst 2 hours of the cruise.
There’s 11 minutes left and in just that little clip at the bench. It looks like we’re already defeated.
Committed before Ulis had ever played a game for UK plus Murray hadn't reclassed yet and wasn't on the radar..
Fox and Monk came the next year.
AB played with 4 of the best guards ever to play at UK and definitely sacrificed his game for the team.
Definitely. Wheeler was incredibly tight, no question, and it showed.
The rim, much to Edwards dismay, proved to be an insurmountable obstacle on a number of dunk attempts.
Yep. Bradshaw ready to jump up and get hyped..........and then has to STFD.
Lol...look at fat Cal jump up and put his face in his hands.
Never forget
I think it’s OK to say that.
The dude was once being widely projected as the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft and was supposed to be our star. Instead, he ended up being barely playable and went undrafted.
If you can’t call that guy a flop …at least at the college level …then they might as well get rid of the word.
Another example of why I don't get all excited about 5 star Freshmen.
For every AD, Wall and KAT you get 50 that turn out to be Skal.
Probably, but you can't deny, that was a easy choice. UK had just come off 4 final fours and a title. And had Wall and Knight in the league. Bledsoe too. Can't fault him for thinking he could've been the next one. He should have went to SJ's for sure. Cal failed that guy.
From College freshman to 2nd year NBA player a lot of maturing both physically abd mentally takes place. It’s too bad that under Cal we never got to see that happen at UK. Now, with NIL and portal, it will again be hard to keep potential stars her for more than 1-2 years. Oh, how I long for the Dan Issel, Mike Pratt kind of teams that grew up right before our eyes.
He put on a show in the Big 3 this passed go around
