Twitter reacts to viral video of Adam Sandler meeting Anthony Edwards
Friday night saw a meeting of two titans: the Ant Man and Happy Gilmore.
The Minnesota Timberwolves tweeted out an awesome video of actor Adam Sandler meeting young phenom Anthony Edwards before their game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Naturally, Twitter had some funny reactions and jokes about what the two men might have been talking about. Here were some of the best ones.
Ant will be Sandler's son in Grown Ups 3.

Sandler is a Laker fan and has even jokingly lobbied them for a roster spot. Thus, he was probably not happy about the 107-83 beatdown that Edwards and the Wolves ended up putting on the Lakers.
But of course some of the jokes about Sandler meeting Edwards were going to be centered around the former’s ability to ball. We have seen many times before that the 55-year-old actor can more than hold his own on the court.
