Summary

In this jam-packed episode of the Road Trippin' Show, RJ, Perk, Channing & Allie react to BREAKING NEWS that Memphis is entertaining trade offers for Ja Morant! The crew debates where Ja lands next, and Perk goes OFF about what's REALLY wrong with American basketball stars (again). Plus, they grade the Trae Young-to-Wizards trade, break down the Bulls' interest in Zion, and debate whether Giannis will EVER leave Milwaukee. Perk then drops EXCLUSIVE intel on LaMelo Ball's locker room blowup with coach, the crew argues whether fouling Kevin Durant up 3 is "weak as f***" or genius, and Richard SOMEHOW defends a high schooler sitting on another player's face as "creating space."
