The 2025-26 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season continues to highlight the incredible talent of guards who may be shorter than most but play far above their weight. In the latest edition of the "Six Feet and Under Club", we turn our attention to Virtus Bologna's explosive guard, Carsen Edwards.
At 1.80 meters (5-foot-11), Edwards has become one of the most electrifying scorers in the competition. In the 2024-25 season, he finished second in the race for the Alphonso Ford Top Scorer Trophy, averaging a jaw-dropping 20.5 points per game. His ability to light up the scoreboard, despite being one of the smaller players on the court, has turned heads across Europe.
So, what makes Edwards so effective in a league where height often reigns supreme? In a candid conversation with Euroleague.net’s Javier Gancedo, Edwards breaks down his unique skill set, his relentless drive, and how he uses his speed, quickness, and basketball IQ to get the best of his defenders. With his arsenal of deep-range shooting, lightning-quick drives, and fearless approach to the game, Edwards is proving that when it comes to EuroLeague scoring, size doesn’t matter.
