Jeff Teague says Justin Edwards is better than Ace Bailey for Philadelphia 76ers
During a recent episode of the Club 520 podcast, Teague claimed the 76ers already have a young player better than Bailey on their roster.
The former NBA player mentioned it’s none other than former Kentucky forward Justin Edwards, who went undrafted during the 2024 NBA Draft.
“They got a player that’s better than him [Bailey] in Philly. Edwards, bro. I swear, Edwards is nice. He just got messed up with that Kentucky system, but he can really hoop,” Teague stated.
Now, that’s some huge praise for an undrafted player. Despite that, Edwards did earn a spot on the 76ers’ roster during the 2024-25 NBA season.
He finished the campaign averaging 10.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game over 44 contests, including 26 starts under head coach Nick Nurse.
