It’s a pity that James’ Lakers were eliminated by the Timberwolves. To be honest, it is very rare for James to have such a performance at this age. As the Timberwolves star Edwards’ performance is indeed worth looking forward to. Edwards is already 24 years old this season. At this time, who performed better at Edwards or 24-year-old James?

24-year-old Edwards

was selected by the Timberwolves as the No. 1 pick in 2020. He was selected into the Rookie's Best Team with averaging 19.3+4.7 per game in the rookie season. Currently playing in the league for four seasons, it can be said that it has grown very rapidly. It was selected for the All-Star Game in 2023, and was also selected for 2024. It also won the championship for the United States with the US team at the Paris Olympics. In terms of technology, the scoring ability is excellent, especially in the mid-range shooting distance shooting, and now the three-point ability has been developed and the progress is also very rapid.

24-year-old Edwards performed very well this season, leading the Timberwolves to the 7th in the Western Conference with a data average of 27.2+6+4.6 per game to enter the playoffs. In the first round of the playoffs, the Timberwolves eliminated the Lakers 4-1. Edwards performed very well and contributed 23.5+6+5.5 per game.

24-year-old James,

24-year-old James should have been in the 2005-2007 season. It can be said that it was a phenomenal season. James led the Cavaliers to win the second place in the Eastern Conference with a comprehensive data of 27.3+6.7+6 per game to enter the playoffs, entered the first round of the playoffs, eliminated the Wizards 4-0, and eliminated the Nets 4-2 in the second round. Especially in the sixth game, James took over the game by himself 48+9+7. In the finals, James' data was greatly affected by the Spurs' tight defense, with only 22+7+6.8 per game, and finally lost to the Spurs 0-4.

James can be said to be the most perfect season in the NBA at the age of 24. Whether in terms of data or leadership, James' performance can be said to have demonstrated his overall dominance.

Based on the above, Edwards' performance at the age of 24 is still very exciting for fans and has made great progress. 24-year-old James was already the top player in the league at that time. Whether in terms of leading the team, personal data, and influence, Edwards and James are not players of the same level.
