Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Anthony Edwards is becoming one of the biggest stars in the NBA. He was selected with the first pick in the 2020 draft and was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team. In 2023, he made his first All-Star appearance. That was also the year he went public with Jeanine Robel.
A few months after giving Robel a shoutout during his 44-point game performance, their relationship made headlines for the wrong reasons when Instagram model Paige Jordae accused Edwards of cheating on Robel with her and then paying for her to have an abortion.
Around that same time, Robel announced that she was pregnant with Edwards’ child. The couple ended up working things out and staying together. Since then though, many people have had questions about the pair including how much older Robel is than Edwards. Here’s the answer to that and more on the athlete and his girlfriend.

Drake greeted his friend and #0 of the Boston Celtics, Jayson Tatum, after the Celtics won their match against the Toronto Raptors on Friday at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
The two men caught up after Drake gave some commentary throughout the match. He was asked to join the broadcast booth during the game, where he compared the Celtics’ guard Payton Pritchard to a “crypto scammer.”
“I feel like I’m in a time-lapse right now. First of all, this guy’s not [former Raptors coach] Nick Nurse. I haven’t been here in a while,” Drake said. “I don’t know where we’re at.

The tragic thing about the Miami Heat making the 2023 NBA Finals is that Jimmy Butler will never be able to enjoy it. The Heat were a virus — a collection of veterans and second-rounders, slinking through the Eastern Conference playoff bracket, exploiting the weaknesses of every team they encountered and laying them in the dirt, one after another. Milwaukee, sporting the best record in the league, couldn’t manage with Giannis physically compromised on the court, so the Heat popped them in the mouth and strolled past them, curled up in a heap.

Two storied NBA franchises look to add to their legacies in the 2022 NBA Finals, but only one will lift the Larry O’Brien Trophy. The Western Conference champion Golden State Warriors face the Eastern Conference champion Boston Celtics in the best-of-seven-game series tipping off with Game 1 Thursday, June 2, at 9/8c on ABC. The Warriors, led by superstar Steph Curry, are making their sixth NBA Finals appearance in eight years, having won it all in 2015, 2017, and 2018. Curry can join an elite group of players to have won at least two NBA Mvp titles and at least four NBA championships in his career. Jayson Tatum leads the Celtics, who last won the NBA championship in 2008 and are in the finals for the first time since 2010. After 13 playoff trips in 15 NBA seasons, forward-center Al Horford is playing in his first NBA Finals. Horford has played in 141 postseason games without reaching the finals, the...

Christmas Day is always big for the NBA, but Covid-19 might put coal in the stockings of some of the Association’s top talent this year. A recent wave of the coronavirus has put several marquee players under health and safety protocols, meaning they could miss action on a day when the NBA likes to showcase its best teams and brightest stars. First up, Atlanta Hawks are at Madison Square Garden to face Julius Randle and the New York Knicks on ESPN. Hawks star Trae Young entered the NBA’s health and safety protocols and will be unavailable. Action then heads to Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum, where the defending NBA champion Milwaukee Bucks host Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics on ABC. The Bucks could be without star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has been sidelined under Covid-19 protocols. Chris Paul (pictured) and the Suns welcome Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors...

It was a Hollywood ending for Team USA basketball at the Tokyo Olympics. They suffered a few setbacks along the way, but rose to the occasion and won the nation’s fourth consecutive gold medal in the sport it invented, thanks to the efforts of its star, Kevin Durant.
Team USA beat Team France 87-82 on Friday behind superstar Kevin Durant, who scored 29 points en route to the victory. It was the second big win for Durant this week, as he signed a $198 million contract extension with his Brooklyn Nets team in the NBA.
The Team USA win avenges the squad’s opening loss to France, a shocker that gave pause after several exhibition losses before the Olympics.
But talent won out, and Team USA finally started rolling.
“We went through some real adversity,” Durant said in a TV interview. “We lost a game in the tournament, we lost two exhibition games.

Jayson Tatum also put on a shooting clinic, tacking on 27 points on 10-for-16 shooting. Though close after the first half, Team USA went on to blow out the Czech team 119-84.
“I’ve had a lot asked of me every team I’ve been on since I was eight years old. It’s no different here,” Durant said. “But I feel I have to available to do every single thing out on the court…I’ve worked to be at that point and it’s fun.”

Team USA basketball is used to rolling out the balls and taking home a victory in its Olympics games. The team was 39-0 in its last three Olympic seasons, including exhibitions.
Make that 39-1 after Saturday night. That’s when upstart Team Nigeria smacked a US team led by all-world forward Kevin Durant by the score of 90-87. It was only an exhibition game, but it sends a message that Olympics gold is not guaranteed for a US squad led by some of the NBA’s greats.
Team USA had to feel confident heading into the game. The US has beaten Nigeria by 127 points in its last two meetings, one at the 2012 London Olympics, the other a warm-up exhibition for the 2016 Rio games.
But the Nigerian team, made up mostly of fringe NBA players with a few college stars, wasn’t having it.

Former Philadelphia 76ers general manager Bryan Colangelo had some frank words for his own wife in the wake of a scandal involving burner Twitter accounts that she admitted were linked to her. The 76ers announced Colangelo’s resignation Thursday morning.
In a statement on his resignation, Colangelo called the actions of his wife, Barbara Bottini, “a seriously misguided effort to publicly defend and support me.”
He could’ve stopped there, but Colangelo continued, taking great care to distance himself from her even as he upped the criticism. “While I recognize how inappropriate these actions were, she acted independently and without my knowledge or consent. Further, the content she shared was filled with inaccuracies and conjecture which in no way represent my own views or opinions.”

One of the players most responsible for the Boston Celtics' deep run in the 2018 NBA Playoffs has been rookie guard Jayson Tatum, who has averaged 18 points per game throughout the postseason. Tatum, selected by the Celtics with the third pick in last year's NBA Draft, can beat defenders with a variety of dazzling offensive moves, including an accurate and consistent fadeaway jumper.
Tatum's fadeaway looks a lot like Kobe Bryant's, and that's no coincidence. As Tatum tells the Wall Street Journal, he mastered his own version of the difficult shot by doing exactly what you'd expect any other 20-year-old to do: Watching videos of Bryant's fadeaway on YouTube.
During Bryant's 20-year-career, the fadeaway (which was previously a key part of Michael Jordan's arsenal as well) became one of his most notable calling cards, and as a result, it's all over YouTube. Fans have made mixtapes featuring his best fadeaways.
