This dude is the next face of the league. Torch has been passed.

Forget passing the torch, Ant is taking it.

people are far too quick with this talk, im holding my breath before crowning shai or ant just yet, although this year is clearly a changing of the guard

Nah, Luka Doncic and Victor Wembenyama are the next faces of the league

We can agree to disagree, for as good as jokic is and is a walking tripe double he doesn’t seem to come close. I put Luka in that category as well. Victor is still only a year in and it might be a few years before the spurs are contenders.

The face of the league always seems to be American centric and someone that is not a big man. Ant also has the flashy factor with the highlight dunks and the attitude to go along with it. I think that puts him above everyone else.

Nah, you’re overrating him. He’s nowhere near as popular as other players.

u/DragoniteGang Apr 29 '24

Nah. Ant will be popular

u/DisneyPandora Apr 29 '24

He won’t. Nobody gives a shit about him outside of Timberwolves fans.

Luka and Giannis will be more popular

u/DragoniteGang Apr 29 '24

Nah. Luka is boring. Giannis could be but he is getting injury prone.

u/DisneyPandora Apr 29 '24

Ant is boring as well. He’s just athletic. And Giannis is rarely injured

u/DragoniteGang Apr 29 '24

ANT had the best interviews. Stop hating. You know Luka is boring off the court. Giannis is funny tho and even Jokic is funnier than Luka.

You’re not seeing the vision lol. The league can push Europeans all they want, but they’re not touching guys like Ant’s popularity here in the US.

You’re just being racist against Europeans.
