Monday night edition of the pod we got to get to Luca Donsic, who we've been hearing so much about

0:06.2

Finally got a chance to really dive into the film on him and then we'll also talk about the Memphis Grizzlies

0:13.0

Which amazingly at four might potentially be a landing spot for Donsic

0:17.7

So the place that you have to start with him is just the absolutely

0:22.7

Unprecedented production for his age and really at any level

0:26.6

I mean for an 18 year old the way that he just played there's never been any European player who's played this wall as an 18 year old

0:34.3
