## Summary

Anthony Edwards’s new adidas AE 3 advert, featuring comedian Hasan Minhaj, takes aim at Drake amid an ongoing exchange of jokes over basketball shoes. It extends a rivalry involving Edwards, Kevin Durant and Drake, with the advert answering a jab Drake made in a Nike campaign.

Minhaj calls Drake a “bandwagon fan” who is “buried in lawsuits”, alongside jokes about LeBron James and Nike’s stock price. In June, Drake appeared in a Nike advert for Durant’s purple KD 19 shoes and joked that only four children in Minnesota wanted Edwards’s purple sneakers. Edwards had already parodied that advert in a PrizePicks commercial earlier this month, which featured a box marked “RETURN TO TORONTO”.
