Summary

The NBA season is weeks away, and we're oozing with excitement. Joel Embiid just signed a contract extension, and while both Amin and Charlotte think it's risky, they agree it could pay off. According to DraftKings, the Sixers are projected as the second-best team in the Eastern Conference. Meanwhile, Jayson Tatum made some honest comments to the media, which Charlotte and Amin think may have backfired. Charlotte is also upset about Tatum’s new tattoo. On the WNBA side, A'ja Wilson was unanimously voted MVP, and Caitlin Clark took home Rookie of the Year honors. Finally, we play a blind ranking game to see if Charlotte and Amin can correctly rank NBA players by their social media followers. Learn more about your ad choices.
