Buckhantz have said it's pronounced "Antwan" even though it's spelled Antawn. it's kinda like Laveranues Coles' first name could be spelled, Laverneus.

I'm not sure how you're supposed to pronounce it but he better step himself up right now b/c the Wiz are on their way to another blowout, down 40-20 at the end of the first... Jeez...

I pronounce it AntAWN, but I'm not sure if that's right.

I always thought it was pronounced soft 'tweener.
