Summary

After a long week at Summer League, it's the Oddball crew's last day in Vegas. But before we go, we have to talk about, you guessed it, more basketball. The Lakers hired Lindsey Harding as the assistant coach to head coach JJ Redick. Amin thinks it adds some needed experience to the Lakers staff. Mikal Bridges signed a team-friendly deal, but Amin and Charlotte still believe he and Bruson are being lowballed. The President of the Clippers says he is upset Kawhi is not playing for Team USA, but Amin thinks it's cap. Before leaving Summer League, Amin spoke with attendees like former NBA players Al Harrington and Ryan Hollins, sportswriter Frank Isola, and social media athlete Tristan Jass about this year's players, games, and atmosphere. We also have our weekly segment of Odd and Ends, where we talk about Alexsandre Sarr's abysmal outing on Tuesday and Jayson Tatum's story about Lebron James from childhood. Amin also shares his interviews from his time at the Call of Duty suite with Stephanie Snowden, Grant Williams, Isaiah Thomas, and Jalen Williams, where they watched Bronny James win the Summer League C.O.D Tournament. Charlotte wraps up the show with her tour of the Thomas and Mack Center, edited by Gen Z producer Sam. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
