Gersson Rosas on Anthony Edwards potentially winning ROY: If you look up and down the Rookie of the year awards, you’d be shocked and surprised at some guys who won. To me, the biggest thing is who is the best player that’s going to be out of this draft, and I have a lot of confidence and over time, I think that story is going to be told. Selfishly, for him, for the organization, I think that’s pretty special (if he wins the ROY award). The body of work, what he’s done, what he’s accomplished. When you look at the class and the durability that’s involved, it’s impressive and I get so excited because he has no idea how good he’s gonna be, he’s just scratching the surface. You’re talking about a 19-year old, picked up the sport late, this is a second sport. His physical talent, his just athleticism gets you excited. And he’s learning the game.
