  "account": "Anthony Edwards has responded to Drake's and Kevin Durant's jabs in a new advertisement for his AE3 sneakers. Edwards and his team took a swipe at Drake, who had previously made fun of him in an ad for KD19s sneakers. In the new ad, the AE3 colourway dubbed \"Stone Onix,\" Edwards and his entourage use a crate labeled \"Fragile: Return To Toronto\" to mock Drake, replacing it with a purple Adidas box once they arrive in Minnesota. They showcase a large crowd waiting for the shoes, directly refuting Drake's claim that only \"four kids in Minnesota\" were anticipating his new sneakers. This is not the first time Edwards has targeted a celebrity in his ads – he is known for his confident personality and willingness to speak his mind. It remains to be seen if Drake will respond, but Edwards appears unbothered by any perceived beef, focusing instead on his own success with his new AE3 sneakers.",
  "summary": "Anthony Edwards finally clapped back at Drake and Kevin Durant with an advert for his new AE3 sneakers in collaboration with PrizePicks. Anthony Edwards isn’t scared of anyone, something he showed in his hilarious interactions with former US President Barack Obama.",
