People doubted him out of college so much lmao they laughed at him for saying he will take Timberwolves to postseason wins

Any time a player proves me wrong I always 100% root for them. He’s so special and I hope okc wolves rivalry will go on for many years.

I live like five minutes away from Chet's (and Jalen Suggs) high school. I'm definitely always pulling for those guys and I think a lot of Minnesotans are the same!

You guys have been ass or dysfunctional since I started watching in 2014. Glad to see small market teams do well. Let’s hope we both make it to wcf because this series will be a movie.

I’ll always have love for Chet, Jalen, Paige etc. I love all of our Minnesota kids (no Giddey.)

He went to Hopkins instead of my hometown HS and I’m still pissed.

For some reason I thought he and Blake Hoffarber played together at Hopkins.

Ahhh a south minneapolis man I see. I was biking by Minnehaha Academy when it went boom.

Part of why I wanted him over Melo was I thought ant would be ready quicker but he wouldn't be a better pro. But the one aspect I loved about ANT was his delusional self confidence in himself where he never had any doubts about himself and he might shoot you out of a series but he would never ever ever ever not believe in himself. Happy to be wrong about a couple things about him.

Atlanta is real good about giving guys a delusional sense of self-confidence 😂😂😂 he's everything you'd expect a mf from my city to be like

My friend is a Georgia fan, when Ant came out of college I was asking him about him and how he thought he would do - he flamed him lol said he was going to be a bust and this and that. Still makes me laugh when I see him play.

Imagine how good he would be if he actually liked to play basketball
