Team USA took care of business on Sunday with another dominant win against Greece ni Group C of the FIBA World Cup. The Giannis Antetokounmpo-less Greece side stood no chance against their powerhouse opponents, with Anthony Edwards once again leading the way for the Americans.
Much like the rest of Team USA, Edwards has been a fan favorite among the local fans in the Philippines, but on Sunday, one particular supporter drew the ire of the Minnesota Timberwolves superstar.
Anthony Edwards Screams Back at Fan in Massive Win Vs. Greece
As Edwards was taking his free throws in the third quarter of their 109-81 blowout win over the Greeks, a fan attempted to distract the 22-year-old by screaming at him while Edwards was at the line. The All-Star guard ended up still sinking his free throw and he decided to clap back at the rowdy fan as he made his way to the opposite side of the court:

That’s hilarious. You can clearly hear Edwards screaming at the fan as the Timberwolves star pointed at him/her after draining his attempt from the line. Edwards was having a lot of fun in this one, and he finished with 13 points on 4-of-11 shooting to go along with two rebounds, three assists, and a steal.
Milwaukee Bucks’ Bobby Portis Provides Spark Off Bench
Milwaukee Bucks veteran Bobby Portis had his best game of the tournament thus far against Greece. The 6-foot-10 big man came off the bench to score 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in his limited time on the floor. Portis also logged four rebounds and a steal as he helped the Americans secure their second victory in two games.
Team USA’s final game of the tournament will be on Tuesday against the bottom-dwellers of Group C, Jordan.
