Summary

The Donovan Mitchell saga has reached it's next chapter, as he's headed out of Utah in a blockbuster trade with... the Cleveland Cavaliers?!? What does the inability to poach a superstar mean for Leon Rose and the CAA Knicks? And who's really negotiating these deals for various teams around the league? Sean Patrick Griffin returns to the Illuminati to dissect Untold: Operation Flagrant Foul, the Netflix documentary about Tim Donaghy. The author of Gaming The Game connects the dots on how the doc was made, declassifies some conversations he's had with a co-conspirator and reveals what crucial details were absent in our Truth Tellers segment.
