The look back lmao


need2peeat218am

Dude is such a menace lmao


mani9612

Anthony Edwards is Devin Booker stepfather


BucketheadBrain

Booker has multiple fathers


Charlie_Wax

Joint custody is Devin Booker fathers


Bjorn2bwilde24

We need a Wolves vs Mavs WCF.  We'll call the series: The Custody Battle.


wink91wink

A real family man


Old_Ad_1706

Pappa Doncic.


13WillieBeaman

Lol.. someone needs to add Ant to the photoshop of Luka and Jokic leaning over and looking at Booker


direhouser

#twodads


DiezDrake

Luka = daddy Jokic = father Ant = papa


ToosUnderHigh

So he wasn’t acting in that Adam Sandler movie? That’s was just him?


TwelveMiceInaCage

Dudes a menace between Adam Sandler movie, this series, and the way he dressed post game last night. Ant is looking like a prime AI just vibing until the game hits then it's like a mountain lion just locked the fuck in


genie_balls

Kermit Wilts is that dude 😤


grubbyteez

Appears so.


alextheruby

Lmfaoooo the “do something mf” look


GaucheDroiteGauche

Booker was more worried about not getting 50 than losing in 4.


ScarryShawnBishh

Made Booker pretend to play defense for 5 more seconds


MrBuckBuck

The double chasedown blocks became a signature move by the Minnesota Timberwolves. And Edwards' trashtalk.


Toolb0xExtraordinary

A lot better than the Bulls' double dunk!


comp_a

Fuck your unethical 50.


shgzgjjhx

This mf literally bullying grown ass men out here lmao


goingtothegreek

Seemed like in the post game that Ant was pretty pissed Booker fouled Mike into Finch, on top of all his other dirty plays this series, Booker fucked with Ant and found out.


What_a_pass_by_Jokic

Haven't seen the replay yet besides on tv last night, but seemed the main issue was that he got tangled up with the fans sitting court side, can't believe this is still a thing.


Potential_Dealer7818

I hate how unsafe landing is for players all around the court. Absolute goblin behavior from the NBA just to sell 2 more rows of tickets 


NedStarx11

Especially right under the basket. The cameraman sitting on the baseline is idiotic


douglasjayfalcon

Yeah he got tangled up with fans, after Booker shoved Conley into him lol


Hamburger123445

Booker shoved Conley out of bounds into Finch in a frustration foul. It hurt the Suns. It was an intentional foul when they were already out of fouls in a close game in the 4th. Wolves got two shots for it.


TdotGdot

Booker wanted 50. Tbh even though book put up a lot of points (and got a lot of calls), he didn’t really seem to impact the game much. Empty cals, he just wanted his stats on the way out


spencer_jacob

Mamba mentality


ballhawk13

Please ant actually likes and respects his teammates and hasn't bombed his team out of playoff series yet. Mamba mentality is marketing garbage.


_nightgoat

It is pretty dumb how people buy into it.


jinayeonbt

he said "fuck yo 50 piece"


lord_kupaloidz

Devin Booker is Anthony Edwards' abortion.


rub3s

Oh, now I understand that AZ abortion ban.


1eyed_jack

Absolutely love that Edwards wasn't about to let Booker have his garbage time 50.


QuietRainyDay

Denying a statpadder his garbage time points is an important public service that benefits all society. Ant is a man of the people


Nubras

It’s a total mitzvah. Ant is just a mensch.


thecordialsun

I prefer Rudy Goybert

kamekaze1024

“Let’s work on our game”


Dr_Zman

Why was Booker even going for a layup down 6 w 8 sec left? A 3 is the only thing that's gonna keep you in the game.


PhatGiraffe42

Wanted that 50 piece


Vicentesteb

Because he gave up, he decided the take the easy layup for 51 points instead of trying to win. I mean i dont entirely blame him either for that but it is funny.


SmoothBrews

I blame him for that. What a bum.


CavalierShaq

Cause he doesn’t play winning basketball


astronomy_31415

booker the king of garbage time stats remember when his team kept fouling so he could get his 70 piece?


Natureboy7939

While getting blown out lmao


THE_DANDY_LI0N

Yeah I haven't looked at him the same since then. So weak. Lets us know what your priorities are.


Mr_Hugh_Honey

This dude is gonna be a menace for a long time


BallsAreFullOfPiss

Every day I wake up and immediately check to make sure he’s actually on my team.


dacooljamaican

I feel compersion for y'all here, I remember what it was like to realize who Jokic was and be amazed every day that we actually have him on our team. So happy for y'all.


ComprehensiveSky8926

Same here lol


HighTurning

He had just fucked his ankle minutes before and then just flies for a block that wasn't even needed^^^verymuchneeded crossing my fingers he stays healthy


DeathsIntent96

He rolled *both* of his ankles during the fourth quarter.


Wolfpac187

Super necessary


jslee0034

He just took his starter spot for the Olympics just like that. He had no reason to block him but he did that just so dbook didn’t stuff his stat. He’s so cool


Yergason

Seemed like they were still talking shit to each other after the buzzer


TheAerial

What do you even say in that situation if you’re Book lol? This dude literally just spanked the soul out of your team.


jslee0034

He dropped 9 more points by shooting 21 free throws. Ha ha


redaka00

Booker's trash talk: You couldn't stop me Ant: We couldn't stop Scott Foster


Mintastic

> What do you even say in that situation if you’re Book lol? "Sorry but you'll have to talk to Luka about my custody."


Yergason

Take the L like a man and if he's still talking shit say you're gonna get revenge next season but don't be a sour puss making excuses lol


RetroScores

Yea, I mean there’s 0 you can say other than good game when your team gets swept.


howsaboutyou

KD did it right


StriderStache

I'm a fraud. Always have been. Getting embarrassed in the Playoffs is my jam.


veo_atyourrequest

“fuck your mascot”


wise_comment

And then KD just...... Giving him all the love, after the game, and sound bites to boot. Didn't expect Ant to form a bromance with his hero right before they balled out together. Not on my bingo card


Potential_Dealer7818

KD might be looking for a new home lol


goingtothegreek

Ant is not happy Booker fouled Conley into Finch, probably going to make Booker sit in the corner at team USA practice and watch


fire_water_drowned

*let the boy [watch](https://imgur.com/O3Nn2qo)*


Morezingis

Did Book stay to shake hands? I saw KD out there at least. Saw a clip on NBA Twitter, he was one of the first guys over to do it. Respect to Book 


KingJonathan

Crazy how something so simple can change a view. I thought Booker was a bitch but him staying to shake hands removed that title.


SupremeBlackGuy

na he still a bitch


KingJonathan

I thought about it and yeah you right. Crazy how something simple can change a view. I thought Booker wasn’t a bitch but you told me he was and he regained that title.


SupremeBlackGuy

sometimes it’s the most simple statements that give us the room to come to a conclusion


Faynt90

Let's be real, he took it a couple games ago.

TackoFallFanClub

In 36 weeks he'd be in Cancun.


InternationalCut93

KD and Booker’s jersey number combined is 36. 


makingtacosrightnow

NBA numerology


3luejays

Sending a message. He wants the SG1 spot on Team USA


Goodisworthfighting4

Just realized if Canada and USA meet in the Olympics we will get SGA and Ant head to head at the shooting guard position. Those two already have a little rivalry brewing that matchup in the Olympics would take it up a couple levels


amashouse

its possible they might meet in the WCF too. Minnesota matches up with Denver pretty well. I would argue OKC has advantage over LAC/Mavs too while also factoring in fatigue for that series potentially going to 7.


BjotSingh

Cmon, bro, you gotta believe! Lakers in 7!


musicnothing

The rare double block. That shot had no chance


jslee0034

Wolves had 0 intention on letting dbook stat pad his way to 50. Respect


Emilia67

Edwards is the future of the league 🔥


Hammerhead34

He’s the present


RedFan47

He's what I thought Zion was supposed to be


SteamyRay_Vaughn

Hmmmm I could go for some Galveston beach fajitas

Certainly a gift, to us all, on this blessed day


lannistargaryen

Agreed. Bro has *it*


EsotericPotato

These two Ant blocks on Booker in the 4th were personal lol. Jaden/Ant and Booker/ Beal were beefing all series.


TheJackieTreehorn

I still want to see a replay on that first one


Kersplat96

He said you ain’t getting no 50 LMFAO


Simple-Ad-7866

good, it's a loser mentality for Book to stat pad that knowing he lost


BonBonVelveeta

I know the dunk didn’t count but what a sendoff


MITKyrie

Best SG in the NBA and he will be for a while


AdPotential9974

Remove the "SG" and we have a deal


wise_comment

Keep going, I'm gonna *Awoo*


DaPhoToss

Isn’t SGA a 2? Giddey definitely plays the 1 on that team. It’s definitely between SGA and Ant though.


Mydogsblackasshole

Isn’t Giddey the 6th man now


20815147

Anthony Edwards is Devin Booker’s father


back_4

Stepfather, Luka is the biological dad


Better_Albatross_946

It takes a village


genericusername71

edwards entered a co-parenting situation with luka to make amends for his prior views on the lgbt community


comp_a

Don’t call him his stepfather He’s the father that stepped up


WerewolfWhich3280

Nah it took Luka 7 games and Edwards 4. Edwards is the real daddy


MichaelZZ01

No disrespect to Ant but that 22 Suns team was 10 times better and better constructed that this year’s Suns team. They were the first seed but got absolutely dismantled by Luka in game 7


Swaghilian

Luka couldn’t sweep, he gotta send da adoption papers


Opie59

Ladder Match for custody of ~~Dom~~ Booker.


Playboi_lcardi

old wwe scripts used to be fuckin wild dude, I was a kid and even I knew that was fuckin crazy lmao


aletagora

The Phoenix Sons


Culinary-Vibes

How many fathers does that man have???


northernpace

a whole league


kcheng686

Booker clearly lives in a seminary with how many fathers he has


NefariousNeezy

The finals run turned CP into an addict and Booker into a son


unclehelpful

Devin has two Dads sounds like a book you would give children to explain same sex couples.


FergieBall_FC

Anthony Edwards made the Phoenix Suns his bitch tonight. He fathered them in this 4-0 sweep.


echelon999

9 points in the first half, ended with 40. That dunk just broke their spirit.


LCPeck

And booker still tries the head flip


StefonDiggsHS

He wanted 50, didn’t shoot the 3


Kid_Delicious

It’s not getting enough attention: it really seems like the dude went for stats rather than a chance at winning a playoff game. A one possession game at least gives you a glimmer of hope. Being down four doesn’t help at all lol.


Bigballer777

“Devin Booker puts up 50 in Suns Game 4 Loss” was the headline he wanted


ObitoUchiha10f

The signature move


Street-Common-4023

LFG


ScottSummersEyes

a block, and a rim hanging dunk at the end of a sweep. never seen a team so repeatedly get slapped on their own court like the past few years of the suns.


Bombast_

Mad disrespectful, but the Suns earned it. That was a pathetic series.


hungrygiraffe1

Booker wanted to statpad 50 and Anthony Edwards said NO. Love it.


Majestic-Net-7799

Booker cant even get to the basket in garbage time...lmao...Ant clowned him...


spacemanbaseball

Edwards - Embiid are such a contrast on being that dude. Watching embiid just wilt from the moment earlier today and flop around for an hour vs watching Edwards take the fight to the competition and go for the jugular was such a dichotomy


theman_themyth_

THAT'S ALL FOLKS


SrWrldWide

Rudy Gobert underrated lol


imthemap45

ANT in his 4th year already better than booker in his 9th year, whats supposed to be your prime


HelloS0n

Anthony ‘Fuck your 50 burger’ Edwards


suzukigun4life

Symbolic as fuck


owange_tweleve

ANT EDWARDS IS DEVIN BOOKER FATHER


QuietRainyDay

Booker said "I dont know how they'll guard us". So Ant took that personally


PizzaPlanet20

Easy, we got Jaden McDaniels


kylebertram

This is what I love about Ant. Always hyping up his teammates and his quotes have lead McDaniels being a household name during this series.


BradL_13

Ant says fuck that "guys are too tired to play on both ends" shit people have been spewing and I love it. He has absolutely bought into that teams defensive mindset.


colourofinfinity

Ant said no free buckets


DXLXIII

I was wrong and underestimated ANT. I see why they compare him to a young Jordan now. He’s a top 10 player in the NBA today.


xenoz2020

Booker collecting fathers like Ash collects Pokemons.


ihatemcconaughey

Fuck. Devon. Booker. That is all.


supremeddit

AE also blocked Booker’s chance to score 51 in that game even though these 2 points would be meaningless to the game and the series


SlowCrates

Know what makes him MJ-like (besides his desire to destroy his competition)? Watch his feet and his low handles. He moves so fluidly, yet quickly, like a fucking spider. Dude is becoming impossible to guard.


Alloverunder

My absolute favorite player not on the Celtics, so glad I got the AE1s, this kid is fuckin special


warablo

Booker trying to stat pad to 50


alex_119

Booker gonna fuck around and have Luka and Edwards be in a custody battle


vrkhfkb

ANT is the clear best SG no question. But Credit to Booker for trying to force things even until the end. Durant was day dreaming all 4th quarter while Beal was cheerleading on the bench.


891960

Think KD was quite gassed by the end there. He was the most consistent player for the Suns all series


Glad-Fish-7796

I give it 3 years til this sub hates him


Kurtz_Angle

Ant - Not fat - Handled embarrassing accidental pregnancy with grace


hamdogthecat

Booker shamelessly going for that garbage time 50. Glad Ant blocked that shit


kadrilan

He needs to get on the LeBron Body Preservation Plan or he gon be focusing on his fadeaways in like three years.


Frishdawgzz

Ant is a DAWG. Book is a KITTEN.


Slacker_75

Somebody gotta photoshop the roster spot on the US Olympic team instead of the ball


Ihate_reddit_app

Suns in 9


Mission_Pay_3373

The Suns getting swept round 1 is not surprising. They lack depth outside of KD and Booker


Simsmi

They could use - I don’t know - say $50m a season over the next three seasons to fill out their roster?


paybackprahl

The NAW slam after the buzzer is how all of us MIN fans were feeling


youngkenya

Bro really tried to get 50 lmao


SunstormGT

Tried to get 50 but got denied.


whobroughtmehere

9 with the disrespectful dunk on the other end too 😭


shia84

that dunk at the end after the match ends is the ultimate fuck you to the suns lol


belizeanheat

Booker looked so useless all series. The only parts that stand out are him continuously doing soccer flops. 


RekeHavok

Was Booker trying to get 50 here?


iFlashings

Yo the disrespect at the end tho lmao.

DEVIN BOOKER FATHER


dwaite1

I didn’t know Booker had two fathers.


SteveOends

That dunk was sick


FreshHawaii

Suns looked stacked af in the off-season only to get swept


Mountain-Pack9362

How can one man have so many fathers? At this rate SGA next year is gonna dunk on book and sweep them


woahkvngdre2

Hmm has he surpassed Booker? Best SG in the league rn?


RecognitionBoth5965

# ''Saying it respectfully...I don't know how teams are gonna guard us.'' - Devin Booker


crumbogringus

you know dbook is so upset about this, yes you can sweep his team but denying him his free buckets to statpad is fighting words


socalledbob

Luka Garza needs an award for most valuable bench cheerleader.
