Episode Description
Bomani Jones is joined by The Ringer's Joel Anderson to break down Victor Wembanyama’s monster playoff performance and why it felt like one of those rare sports moments where you realize you’re watching the future. Bo and Joel compare Wemby’s arrival to LeBron, Allen Iverson, Randy Moss, Michael Vick, Usain Bolt and Shaq, then ask what the Thunder can possibly do next.
Later, Bomani and Joel discuss the NAACP urging Black athletes and fans to withhold support from public universities in states attacking Black voting representation, and whether it’s fair to ask young athletes to carry that kind of burden. Plus, they react to Stephen A. Smith’s response to Jaylen Brown & the limits of athlete-run media.
