Anthony Edwards debuted the ‘Georgia Clay’ Adidas AE1 then immediately threw down a vicious dunk on John Collins that left him unable to compete.
For the sneaker of the year conversation, an undisputed front-runner is Anthony Edwards’s Adidas AE1. When much of the chatter around Adidas is about the impact of dropping Kanye West it should be about consumers going crazy for the AE1.
From giving back to his community to the commercials the partnership between Edwards and Adidas is a match made in heaven.
Last night Edwards debuted the ‘Georgia Clay’ colorway of the AE1 and provided the best marketing that money couldn’t even buy. He immediately secured a ‘dunk of the year’ contender after slamming down a vicious dunk over John Collins.
The dunk was so intense and so hard Collins was unable to continue and missed the rest of the game according to NBA.com. Immediately this set social media ablaze with people wanting a pair of the ‘Georgia Clay’ AE1′ expeditiously.
To add to the hype of the AE1’s Edwards went viral yet again for his response to the dunk over John Collins. “Little a** n***a, OH MY GOD,” Edwards said while watching the dunk.
Another charismatic AE moment showcasing his ability to authentically be himself at all times.
The next time someone says there won’t be a face of the NBA once LeBron James retires remind them no one else is as charismatic as Anthony Edwards. Atlanta influences everything and AE is yet another example of that being true.
