The Anthony Edwards saga has taken a dramatic turn with Rapper Plies joining the chorus of reactions to the Minnesota Timberwolves player's alleged abortion pressure on Instagram model Paige Jordae.

Allegations and Social Media Firestorm:

Jordae first ignited the online firestorm by sharing screenshots of seemingly incriminating messages exchanged with Edwards. These messages allegedly contain Edwards urging Jordae to terminate her pregnancy while also offering financial support for the procedure. This bombshell comes hot on the heels of Edwards' girlfriend, Jeanine Robel, publicly announcing her own pregnancy.

Plies' Blunt Take:

The rap artist took to Twitter with a strong reaction, questioning Edwards' choices and expressing frustration with the situation. He lamented, "I Don't Understand How U Can Work Hard All Your Life To Get To The Bag(money) ... Just To Run Around Fck Chicks 'RAW' Who Ain't Got Sht!! Just To Give Them Your Hard Earned Money!!!! I Just Don't Get It!!!!"

Stephen A. Smith: Apology Call and Privacy Concerns:

Sports commentator Stephen A. Smith weighed in on "The Stephen A. Smith Show," urging Edwards to issue a public apology while also expressing reservations about the privacy violations involved. He acknowledged the need for Edwards to address the situation publicly as a public figure but further emphasized the importance of respecting private communications and dynamics between individuals. Smith stated, "I'm singing that same old dance, it's none of our damn business."

While acknowledging Jordae's "freedom to do what she wants with her body," Smith questioned the ethics of publicizing such personal conversations for personal gain. He commented, "I'm wondering when some law is gonna come into place where people like Anthony Edwards and others can retaliate legally for folks putting their private messages on blast. It's none of our business. She clearly did it to humiliate him and compel him to think the way she wants him to think, so she's using the public to do it, by violating his privacy."

A Divided Landscape:

The situation surrounding Anthony Edwards presents a complex web of accusations, public figures' opinions, and ethical considerations surrounding privacy and personal choices. As the situation unfolds, it's likely to continue generating a diverse range of reactions and perspectives.
