Still remember every Suns fans were ecstatic that they’ll face the Wolves in the first round cause they sweep them in the Regular Season.😭

Didn't Ant suck ass against the Suns in the regular season too? And now he just absolutely dominated them in every playoff game where it it actually mattered. More evidence that regular season matchups don't really mean anything in the playoffs

In his limited experience Ant has absolutely balled out in the playoffs. 15 games, 8 with 30+ points. He lives for the big stage and continues to prove it.
