People need to recognize his DEFENSE! He basically shut down Denver's 2nd best player guarding him 80 feet for almost the entire game. No other player on the planet is doing this!

A wise man said, “See you in Game 7.”

Thank you, AntMan, for showing up big time tonight.

Definitely the most embarrassing loss by the Nuggets this season. Imagine you’re down by 50 by a moment vs a team facing elimination. 💀

[VincentHannafromHeat]

Whether they win or lose game 7, no one can deny that Ant has officially blossomed into an absolute Superstar. That look after that hesi dunk was sick, ice cold ❄️

[pgpacernation]

Ant is so young but fearless and a true leader
May the best team advance in game 7 it’s going to be a movie 🍿

[klgzy]

I thank god everyday that MJ stayed out of Ant's life. He could have turned out like Bronny.

Win or lose game 7, Ant-Man deserves all the recognition possible, the boy is special, he is going to be a superstar and he will be one of the new faces of the league.... today Ant is the player most similar to Jordan or Kobe

They told Mike Conley to stop shooting mid range shots 😂😂😂😂

[jessepinkman]

As a long time nuggets fan, I give the Timberwolves lots of respect how they been playing. I think Mavs vs. Wolves would be an intense series too.
