Anthony Edwards Wears Wristband for Leukemia Awareness

Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards recently connected with a young fan, Luca, who is battling leukemia, by promising to wear an orange wristband gifted by Luca for the rest of his career. Luca, who wore an Edwards jersey and held a sign reading 'To Do: 1. Beat Cancer 2. Be the Next MJ,' met Edwards after a career-high 53-point game. The heartfelt gesture was followed by Edwards' stellar performances in subsequent games, scoring 37 points in a win against the LA Clippers and 32 points against the New Orleans Pelicans. Edwards' actions have not only inspired a young fan but have also brought attention to the causes represented by the orange wristband, such as leukemia and other diseases. This touching interaction highlights Edwards' human side, reinforcing his status as a fan-favorite both on and off the court.
