We're really excited about this week's guest. He's the #1 pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, Orlando Magic guard and leading candidate for Rookie Of The Year, Paolo Banchero. We cover so much in this episode from his wild year at Duke to his first few months of The NBA. Topics include: Being mistaken for Patrick Mahomes, the pressure of playing for Duke during Coach K's final year, the tragedy of losing to UNC, the motivation tactics of Coach K, what motivates Paolo to continue to play with an edge despite all the praise, his draft night experience, the draft night antics of his agent, Mike Miller, what he's learned from his first year in The NBA, his 'Welcome to The NBA' moment featuring Kevin Durant, where Seattle basketball ranks among other cities, an amazing Jamal Crawford 1-on-1 story and so much more.
