Summary
Trysta is joined by producer Zeke to break down all the hottest storylines in the NBA, starting with the Lakers brutal injuries to Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves and why their postseason success is in serious doubt.
Trysta and Zeke also get into the disastrous Bulls front office (which was fired after recording), a wild Spurs Nuggets game, Dan Hurley's NBA potential, and where do the Magic go after a really disappointing season and a lost locker room.
Finally, Trysta reacts live to Deontay Wilder's insane rant on Piers Morgan and buys stock in actors under 40!
