Anthony Edwards had the best response when Charles Barkley asked what to eat in Minnesota

Anthony Edwards and Charles Barkley are comedy gold.

After defeating the Nuggets in a wild Game 7, the Timberwolves will officially head to the Western Conference Finals.

Following the improbable comeback win over Denver, Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards appeared on TNT’s postgame coverage of the game. During this exchange with Barkley, the Inside the NBA host said that he had not been to Minnesota in approximately twenty years (which may not be true).

This seemed to excite Edwards, though, who told Barkley to “bring his [expletive]” out there. It was yet another hilarious moment from Edwards, who has now become arguably the funniest player in postgame interviews.

Barkley then asked Edwards one of the most important questions you could possibly ask a basketball player after a series-clinching victory: When I’m in your city, what should I eat?

Edwards said he would find a way to get Barkley’s contact information and would gladly provide a list of recommendations.

In the meanwhile, however, celebrity chef Bobby Flay provided a quick recommendation for once Barkley arrives in Minnesota: Spoon and Stable.

Other fans have jumped in to help Edwards provide Barkley with the best food options for when he is in Minnesota.

But either way, this was a hilarious conversation between two very funny people.

Bobby Flay buys into ownership of Belmont favorite after successful 2016 investment

It has worked once before.

Celebrity chef Bobby Flay bought a minority interest in the colt We the People on Monday, an investment in the current betting favorite for the Belmont Stakes on Saturday.

The late purchase is a move that has paid off for Flay in the past, as he bought into eventual 2016 Belmont winner Creator just days before that year’s race. It was a moment he reflected on his press release.

“I’m thrilled to join the We the People team,” Flay said, via multiple outlets. “I have been an admirer of this colt since he started his career at the beginning of this year. I want to thank Lisa and Kenny Troutt of WinStar for giving me this exciting opportunity. Winning the 2016 Belmont with Creator will be a moment that me and my family will never forget.”

We the People had 2-1 odds to win the Belmont as of Friday afternoon. The colt has won three of four starts this year, including the Peter Pan last month – a Belmont prep race.

Flay joins an ownership group that includes WinStar Farm, a partner in the 2016 deal.

“We appreciate Bobby wanting to partner with us again,” WinStar president and CEO Elliott Walden said in a release. “He is great for the business, and a great partner.”
