It has been an interesting basketball journey for Alex Rodriguez. After overcoming many hiccups, the MLB star fulfilled his dream of owning an NBA team with a stake in the Minnesota Timberwolves. It brought him alongside Anthony Edwards. Given that the 22-year-old had said he did not know who Rodriguez was, many thought about how the two would work together. But things changed, and the two bonded with great understanding. But it was not as smooth as it could be.

When Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez were in a relationship, they looked mesmerizing. All the fans loved them and wanted to see both together for the rest of their lives. But after being engaged for years, the two separated. It shocked the world and was tough for Rodriguez, too. However, he moved on from it. But in the process, a straightforward question from Edwards brought some pain back and added some discomfort to their friendship.

The question was not ideal, but it seems Rodriguez handled it well. It is visible in their growing friendship even after a tough start.
