Summary
The NBA Finals are here, and the Heat Check has you covered. Trysta and Zeke break down the biggest matchup in basketball: the championship-starved New York Knicks against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs, who are ahead of schedule and suddenly four wins away from a title.
She dives into the key matchups, who guards whom, the importance of OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges, and Josh Hart, and whether the Knicks are being overlooked. Plus, can anyone slow down Wemby?
Trysta also looks ahead to a busy offseason, including the Timberwolves' future, Portland's next steps, Kyrie Irving's free agency outlook, and rumors linking the Pelicans to Jaylen Brown. Plus, one final rant on Crumbl's newest sugar-packed drink.
