AE feels taller for some reason.
anyhow, can't wait to see these two going at it in the conference finals

TBF listed heights are notoriously innacurate, especially with young prospects. A lot of them grow once they are in the league.

Edwards very well might be the player with the highest approval rating in the league. He's refreshingly old school, a bad ass in the same vein of Jordan, Kobe and Butler but with the right dose of humanity. (Just look at Butler's influence on KAT vs his...). He's fun, interesting, boisterous. He steals the show with his play and personality.
Shai's personality and game is boring, soft and unaesthetic compared to Edwards.
Edwards as the face of the league is making the NBA a lot more money than Shai. So, one would think that the league will try to nudge results in the favor of Edwards so they can make more money. And I think phase 1 has already started with the prison ball rules that clearly favor the more athletic Wolves team. Edwards is certainly much better for business than Jokic.
