Jordan > Kobe > Edwards at age 22.
That said Edwards is a better athlete than Kobe. He however is not close to the athlete that Jordan was. I want to mainly clear that out

Edwards looks more like Derrick Rose to me.

MJ
Edwards
Kobe
Edwards is a bonafide freak athletically, no doubt. Already the 2nd most athletic SG ever.

I think Amen Thompson might actually be the most athletic of any of them.

Zion. Its Zion bubba. Amen's up there though. Kobe, with all due respect, is dead last. Great athlete but a tier below the rest of these guys

Edwards has this grace of movement that reminds me most of Jordan. You know what I mean? It’s like watching a cat fly across the room. Something to behold.

It is hard to find guys who move laterally better than Thompson twins. These two are insane, they can probably outrun some guys while running backwards.
ANT is crazy athlete as well, I think he has to be one of the better NBA athletes in whole history of the league. Definitely more athletic than Kobe from strength and explosiveness aspect. What I loved about Kobe, is how plastic and coordibated he was in the air. Kobe was very athletic, but he was more graceful than athletic still. I still cant figure out how he was 220 pounds, because he looked so lean. NBA players are way skinier now, and 220 is a tank for a guard nowadays it feels, and Kobe wasn't a tank at all.

He's really like a more vertically explosive Wade, he's a little shorter than Jordan but slightly taller than Wade.
