Summary

The Dallas Mavericks landed the no. 1 pick in the draft, which means that they’ll likely take the consensus no. 1 prospect, Cooper Flagg, after they traded Luka Doncic to the Lakers midway through the 2024-25 season. Logan, Howard, and Raja discuss how the lottery miraculously ended up going in Dallas's favor and what Flagg can be at the next level. Should this year’s lottery be a warning to teams who are obviously tanking? Jayson Tatum left Game 4 of the Celtics vs. Knicks Eastern Conference semifinals game with an apparent leg injury that could sideline him for a long time. The guys discuss how Tatum’s injury could affect the Celtics' future in light of the major cap issues they have looming. Is now the time for Jaylen Brown to step up? Plus, the mailbag!
