Summary
Our guy, Udonis Haslem, is up in the Miami rafters forever! This past weekend UD got his jersey retired by his hometown team and we were there to witness it. In his honor, we’re throwing it back to Season 1, when we chopped it up in front of his shark tank. UD is one of the true OG’s of the league and we went deep with him about everything from D-Wade’s rookie year, all-time Pat Riley stories, and why the big 3 took money off their contracts to make sure they could keep UD on the squad. A 305 legend. Tap in!
- Udonis going to France and then coming back to U.S., signing with the Heat (14:37)
- Pat Riley, the Godfather, stories (19:40)
- Udonis’s role as a veteran in the league (51:24)
