Anthony Edwards's Technical Difficulties...

The Ringer
About this episode

Anthony Edwards received his 16th technical foul and was ejected during the Timberwolves' matchup against the Lakers Thursday night. Ant will now serve the mandatory one-game suspension for receiving his 16th tech. Former teammate Austin Rivers joins Logan and Raja to discuss how receiving so many technicals can affect his image and what steps Ant-Man should take to boost his stardom (3:37). Plus, Paul George has decided to halt his podcast to focus on the Sixers, getting healthy, and trying to win a championship. What’s the real reason George put the mic down, and can active player podcasts affect results on the court (38:42)?
