TEAM USA star Anthony Edwards has always been confident in his ability.

And a new behind-the-scenes video from the Paris Olympics revealed that this goes beyond the court.

Teammate Stephen Curry tried to create a challenge between Edwards and the American table tennis team.

“They said they couldn’t hit you with anything,” Curry said in a social media post shared by Team USA.

“I have some people here who say they’re going to beat me at ping pong 21-0,” Edwards said.

“I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it. I can’t do it. I can’t do it. Eleven to zero, I’m scoring a point.

“Okay. How? When are we going to do this? Whenever.”

Fans weren’t as confident in Edwards’ abilities.

“Ant-Man about to be DESTROYED at table tennis by these women, no doubt,” replied one fan.

“Stream this live on @X and give people the showdown they need to see,” a second added.

“He can dunk on them,” commented another.

“These ladies don’t know Ant is the best at everything,” joked a fourth.

Edwards made his Olympic debut today when Team USA took on Serbia.

He came on after just two minutes when Joel Embiid was hooked after a slow start.

A star-studded Team USA squad was down 10-2 at the time and fans were happy to see Edwards involved.

“LMAO, we all know Jokic is cooking Embiid. AD should have started anyway,” one posted.

“Kerr, stop making Embiid starting center happen. Blud wasn’t made for the Olympics,” added another.

Kevin Durant finally made his first appearance for the USA Basketball team this summer.

And his return was well received after losing all five friendlies in Las Vegas, Abu Dhabi and London.

The scoring power had left due to a calf strain.

But NBC announcers Noah Eagle and Dwyane Wade revealed that he returned to training this week.

“He brings a different dynamic to this team that no one has seen in this tournament,” Wade added.
